  ABOUT THYRONEWS: 

Dr Haitham SHARARA

Hospital practitioner at the University Hospital of NIMES

Medical imaging service

Diagnostic and therapeutic unit in thyroidology

Place of Professor Robert Debré

30029 NIMES

I have been working at the University Hospital of Nîmes since May 1990, my activity has gradually been directed over time  towards the diagnosis and radio-interventional treatment of thyroid pathologies.

The exploration and treatment of thyroid pathology represents  70 -75% of my activity.

Since 1992:

4000 – 4300  thyroids per year are subject to mon  ultrasound expertise, i.e. on average between 12 and 15 examinations per working day.

Between 900 and 1000 punctures per year, i.e. on average  20  punctures per week.

Since 2019:

Between 45 and 50 radiofrequency thermoablations performed by  year, i.e. one intervention per week

Currently the activity is  increasing and  a new  niche_cc781905-5cde-3153-bb_bad6 has just opened to respond to the growing demand for thermoablation and more recently the creation of a new activity concerning the chemical ablation of nodules by  96% ethanol alcoholization of cystic nodules and hot nodules.

Other diagnostic and therapeutic activities will open   soon.
