Thyroid surgery or ablation is better

Whether thyroid surgery or ablation is better can not be standardized, the two methods have different indications, each has its own advantages as well as disadvantages, and should be selected in accordance with the individual situation. 1. Thyroid surgery: thyroidectomy, mainly including partial thyroidectomy and total thyroidectomy. In addition to benign thyroid lesions, this method can also be used to treat malignant thyroid tumors. However, the surgery is traumatic and prone to postoperative bleeding, infection and other risks. 2. Thyroid ablation: mainly radiofrequency ablation under ultrasound guidance. This method can target benign thyroid lesions, safe and effective, fast recovery. The disadvantage is that larger nodules or cysts cannot be completely ablated at one time, so multiple treatments are needed, and it cannot be used to treat malignant thyroid tumors. After the detection of thyroid disease, the choice of treatment should be consulted with the doctor, who will take into account the patient’s condition and take the best treatment measures.
