What is Thyroid Surgery? Thyroid surgery, also known as thyroidectomy, involves the removal of part or all of the thyroid gland. The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck, responsible for regulating metabolism through hormone production. Surgery is often necessary for patients with thyroid conditions such as: Thyroid Cancer: Removal of malignant tumors within the thyroid gland. Goiter: Enlarged thyroid gland that causes difficulty in breathing or swallowing. Thyroid Nodules: Suspicious or cancerous growths within the thyroid. Hyperthyroidism: Overactive thyroid that doesn't respond to medication or other treatments. What is Radical Neck Dissection (RND)? Radical Neck Dissection (RND) is a surgical procedure performed to remove lymph nodes and surrounding tissues in the neck that are affected by cancer, particularly head and neck cancers. RND is a critical treatment for patients with: Metastatic Cancer: Cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes in the neck. Thyroid Cancer: In advanced stages, cancer from the thyroid may spread to the lymph nodes, requiring RND. Head and Neck Cancer: RND helps to remove cancerous tissue and prevent further spread of the disease. Types of Thyroid Surgery Offered at Kataria Eye and ENT Hospital Total Thyroidectomy: Complete removal of the thyroid gland, typically recommended for patients with thyroid cancer or large goiters. Partial Thyroidectomy (Lobectomy): Removal of one lobe or part of the thyroid gland, often used for treating thyroid nodules or small tumors. Minimally Invasive Thyroid Surgery: Advanced techniques allow for smaller incisions, quicker recovery, and minimal scarring, ensuring patient comfort and faster healing. Radical Neck Dissection (RND) Procedure RND is a complex surgery performed to treat advanced head and neck cancers that have spread to the lymph nodes. This procedure involves the removal of lymph nodes, as well as the surrounding tissues, muscles, and blood vessels that may be affected by cancer. The extent of the surgery depends on the spread and severity of the disease. Modified RND: In some cases, RND can be modified to preserve certain muscles, nerves, or blood vessels while still removing the cancerous lymph nodes, allowing for better postoperative function. Selective Neck Dissection: A less extensive form of RND, where only specific lymph nodes are removed, often used for early-stage cancers.
