A thyroidectomy is the surgical removal of the thyroid gland (partial or total) for a variety of reasons such as thyroid nodules, hyperthyroidism, etc. The amount of thyroid tissue to be removed depends on the severity and the nature of the thyroid disease.
The thyroid gland is a small butterfly-shaped gland at the base of the neck that controls the metabolism. Hence, thyroid diseases can wreak havoc on the entire body if not treated properly in time.
While for some thyroid issues such as Graves’ disease, hyperthyroidism, etc., medical management is possible in mild cases, for others such as thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, etc., immediate surgical management is preferred.
At Pristyn Care, you can consult the best ENT specialists in Mamallapuram for expert consultation and treatment regarding thyroid issues.
