Thyroid Cancer
Expert Care by Dr. Divyesh Pathak
Thyroid cancer affects the thyroid gland, a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck, responsible for regulating metabolism. At Adwaita Cancer Hospital & ICU, Dr. Divyesh Pathak leads a team of specialists offering comprehensive care for thyroid cancer patients, ensuring personalized treatment with a focus on advanced techniques and compassionate support.
Types of Thyroid Cancer:
Thyroid cancer can develop in different forms, each requiring tailored treatment approaches. The primary types include:
- Papillary Thyroid Cancer: The most common type, typically slow-growing but often curable, even when it spreads to lymph nodes.
- Follicular Thyroid Cancer: Less common, often affecting older adults. It can spread to distant organs such as the lungs or bones.
- Medullary Thyroid Cancer: Develops in the thyroid's C-cells and can be associated with genetic syndromes, requiring careful diagnosis and specific treatments.
- Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer: A rare and aggressive form of thyroid cancer that grows rapidly and is often difficult to treat.
- Hurthle Cell Carcinoma: A rare subtype of follicular thyroid cancer that is more likely to spread to nearby tissues and lymph nodes.
Signs & Symptoms of Thyroid Cancer:
- A lump or swelling in the neck
- Hoarseness or voice changes that do not resolve
- Difficulty swallowing or breathing
- Persistent pain in the neck or throat
- Swollen lymph nodes in the neck
Total Thyroidectomy Treatment for Thyoid Cancer
Surgical procedure in which the entire thyroid gland is removed. Typically performed to treat conditions such as:
- Thyroid Cancer: To remove cancerous tumors and reduce the risk of recurrence.
- Large Goiters: To alleviate symptoms like difficulty breathing or swallowing.
- Hyperthyroidism: When other treatments for overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) are not effective or suitable.
Key Features of Thyroidectomy
- The entire thyroid gland is excised, often including nearby lymph nodes if cancer has spread.
- Hormone Replacement to compensate for the loss of thyroid function.
Benefits of Thyroidectomy
- Can alleviate symptoms related to thyroid disorders and improve overall health outcomes.
- Provides a definitive treatment for thyroid cancer and other severe thyroid conditions.
