FAQs around Thyroid

What are the different types of thyroid removal surgeries?

Generally, based on the surgical technique, there are 3 different types of surgeries – conventional thyroidectomy, endoscopic thyroidectomy, and transoral thyroidectomy. On the other hand, based on the amount of thyroid tissue removed, thyroidectomy can be classified as – Total thyroidectomy (TT), Subtotal thyroidectomy (STT), Thyroid lobectomy (Hemithyroidectomy), and Thyroid isthmusectomy.

What is the postoperative care required after thyroidectomy surgery?

Immediately after the surgery, the patient needs rest, pain and thyroid replacement medications, wound care, etc. Moreover, thyroidectomy surgery leaves the patient in a permanent state of hypothyroidism, so the patient needs thyroid replacement medications and regular TSH tests to ensure there are no postoperative complications.

Is thyroidectomy surgery covered under insurance?

Thyroidectomy is usually only performed when absolutely medically necessary for severe cases, thus, the treatment is generally covered under most health insurance policies. However, the extent of the coverage depends on the terms of the policy.

When is thyroidectomy recommended to the patient over medical management?

Generally, the first avenue for treatment for all thyroid issues is medical management. However, surgery is prescribed if the patient can’t take anti-thyroid medicine due to complication, pregnancy, etc., have a large goiter, or have a suspicious thyroid nodule.

Can the patient live a normal life after thyroidectomy?

While the thyroid gland is undoubtedly important for life, the patient can live a healthy and normal life even without it with proper medication and management after the surgery.
