Abstract

The common indications for thyroidectomy include a suspicion of cancer, local symptoms of a large neck mass (e.g., difficulty breathing or swallowing), and abnormal thyroid function (e.g., hyperthyroidism). Surgical management of thyroid problems requires a thorough understanding of the anatomy and pathophysiology of the thyroid gland. © 2008 Springer New York.
