What is a Ca Thyroid (Thyroid Cancer)?
Thyroid cancer is a cancer that starts in the thyroid gland, a small butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck. The thyroid plays an important role in controlling metabolism, heart rate and body temperature. Most thyroid cancers grow slowly and are highly treatable when detected early.
- Symptoms may be mild or absent in early stages, but can include a lump or swelling in the neck, voice changes or hoarseness, and enlarged lymph nodes.
- Diagnosis usually involves a physical examination, ultrasound imaging, and a fine-needle biopsy to confirm cancer cells.
- Treatment depends on the cancer type and stage and often includes surgery to remove part or all of the thyroid gland.
- After surgery, some patients may need additional therapy and long-term monitoring of thyroid hormone levels.
