If you need only part of your thyroid removed (partial thyroidectomy), your thyroid may work normally after surgery. If your entire thyroid is removed (total thyroidectomy), you need daily treatment with thyroid hormone to replace your thyroid’s natural function.

Symptomps for THYROID SURGERY ?

Our expert Dr. Nishant Saurabh Saxena may recommend a thyroidectomy if you have conditions such as:

  • Thyroid cancer – Thyroid Cancer is the most common reason for Thyroid Surgery. If you have thyroid cancer, removing most, if not all, of your thyroid will likely be a treatment option.
  • Goiter (Noncancerous enlargement of the thyroid) – Removing all or part of your thyroid gland is an option if you have a large goiter that is uncomfortable or causes difficulty breathing or swallowing or, in some cases, if the goiter is causing hyperthyroidism. Get Thyroid Surgery in Kanpur if you’re facing this issue.
  • Hyperthyroidism ( Overactive Thyroid ) – Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which your thyroid gland produces too much of the hormone thyroxine. If you have problems with anti-thyroid drugs and don’t want radioactive iodine therapy, thyroidectomy may be an option.
  • Indeterminate Thyroid Nodules – Some thyroid nodules can’t be identified as cancerous or noncancerous after testing a sample from a needle biopsy. Our expert doctor may recommend that people with these nodules have thyroidectomy if the nodules have an increased risk of being cancerous.

Total Thyroidectomy

Thyroid Lobectomy

This is commonly the “littlest” activity performed on the thyroid organ. It is performed for single predominant knobs, which might be thyroid disease or those which are uncertain following fine needle biopsy. This medical procedure may likewise be suitable for follicular adenomas, lone hot or cold knobs, or goiters which are disengaged to one flap (not normal).

Subtotal Thyroidectomy

this operation removes all the “problem” side of the gland as well as the isthmus and the majority of the opposite lobe. This operation is typical for small, non-aggressive thyroid cancers.

  1. You have a nodule that might be thyroid cancer.
  2. You have a diagnosis of thyroid cancer.
  3. You have a nodule or goiter that is causing local symptoms – compression of the trachea, difficulty swallowing or a visible or unsightly mass.

Removal of part of the thyroid can be classified as:

  • A hemi-thyroidectomy or thyroid lobectomy – where one lobe (one half) of the thyroid is removed.
  • An isthmusectomy – removal of just the bridge of thyroid tissue between the two lobes; used specifically for small tumors that are located in the isthmus.
