What are the main treatments for thyroid cancer? There is a worldwide consensus that the main treatment for thyroid cancer is surgery, especially for papillary and follicular carcinoma, which requires timely, standardized and thorough surgical treatment. Some patients think that they have thyroid cancer and must be completely removed and the whole thyroid gland must be cut out to be safe, while others think that the thyroid gland is a very important organ and ask doctors to try to preserve some normal glands. However, the specific situation should be individualized and rationalized according to the patient’s own condition, so as to avoid both under-treatment and over-treatment for the patient. In addition to the treatment of the primary thyroid lesion, the surgery should also focus on the treatment of the lymph nodes in the neck, otherwise, it may leave a root of trouble for the recurrence of the tumor in the future. Our previous studies have shown that thyroid cancer has a 50% probability of metastasis to the cervical lymph nodes in the central region. Therefore, for patients with thyroid cancer, including some patients with early stage microscopic cancer, we should pay attention to the simultaneous management of cervical lymph nodes while removing the thyroid lesions. After surgery, iodine therapy and endocrine suppression therapy should be used as appropriate according to pathological results and intraoperative conditions. What is the treatment effect of thyroid cancer? Although the incidence of thyroid cancer is increasing, most of the thyroid cancers are in the early stage and have good prognosis due to the improved sensitivity of detection methods, and it is one of the best cancers in the head and neck area and even in the whole province. Most of these tumors are very “mild” in nature and grow very slowly without affecting normal life and work. After standardized surgical treatment, most of the patients with nail cancer can get a satisfactory treatment effect. Through scientific and reasonable living and eating habits, it can help you stay away from thyroid cancer. For residents in coastal areas, avoid excessive intake of high iodine food and deliberate iodine supplementation; avoid contact with known carcinogenic substances; have regular physical examination, especially for patients with family history of cancer; have regular follow-up or timely treatment of thyroid nodules; strengthen physical exercise and pay attention to the rhythm of life and healthy living habits, etc.; therefore, thyroid cancer should be treated rationally. Therefore, thyroid cancer should be treated rationally, not only can we not ignore the risk of thyroid nodules, but also we do not need to be overly frightened, as there is every hope for clinical cure through scientific, standardized, early and timely diagnosis and treatment.
