ABSTRACT

Iodoterapia representa a terapia com iodo radioativo. A radiação beta emitida pelo iodo radioativo são partículas que irão se armazenar no tecido da tireóide destruindo as células cancerígenas que ainda restaram após a cirurgia (tireoidectomia). É importante enfatizar este possível efeito deletério da terapêutica, a qual afeta a mucosa da via lacrimal, sendo o resultado do processo de inflamação e cicatrização vascular, produzindo transtornos hipovasculares, hipocelulares e hipóxicos.

The beta radiation emitted by radioactive iodine are particles that will be stored in the thyroid tissue destroying cancer cells that were left after surgery (thyroidectomy). It is important to emphasize a possible deleterious effect of therapy which affects the mucosa of the lacrimal system which results in a process of vascular inflammation and scarring producing disorders hypovascular, hypocellular and hypoxic.
