The Thyroid Surgery Department is dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of thyroid cancers. Here are some of the most common surgeries performed by thyroid surgeons:
Thyroidectomy: The primary surgical procedure for thyroid cancer is thyroidectomy. The extent of the thyroidectomy depends on the type and stage of the cancer; the most common surgeries are Total Thyroidectomy, Thyroid Lobectomy, and Near-Total Thyroidectomy.
Central Neck Lymph Node Dissection: In some instances, thyroid surgeons may disable a central neck lymph node to remove lymph nodes in the central neck area.
Modified Radical Neck Dissection: Surgeons may perform a modified radical neck dissection to remove affected lymph nodes.
Minimally Invasive Surgery: Thyroid surgeons often utilize minimally invasive techniques, such as endoscopic surgery, for thyroidectomies. This approach results in smaller incisions, reduced scarring, and shorter recovery times.
