The method of eliminating thyroid nodules needs to be chosen according to the nature of nodules and clinical symptoms. For benign thyroid nodules without obvious clinical symptoms such as pressure, we can follow up and observe; for benign nodules with obvious clinical symptoms such as pressure and malignant nodules, we need to remove them by surgery in time. 1. Nodules that are clinically recognized as benign should be followed up for a long period of time and undergo regular ultrasound examination of the thyroid gland. If clinical or ultrasound signs of malignancy are suspected, or if the size of the nodule has increased by more than 50%, ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration should be repeated in order to clarify the nature of the nodule. 2. For nodules that are highly suspected of malignancy clinically or are determined to be suspected malignant or malignant by fine needle aspiration results, early surgery is required. In addition, even benign nodules should be operated on when symptoms of compression occur, especially when a retrosternal or mediastinal goiter causes compression symptoms. 3. “Hot nodules” with autonomous functions can be treated with radioactive iodine. When thyroid nodules appear, consult a doctor for treatment.
