Thyroid Cancer | Dr. Pavan Prasad B. K. | Manipal Hospital Jayanagar
In this video, Dr. Pavan Prasad B. K, Consultant Surgical Oncology at Manipal Hospital Jayanagar, explains the causes, symptoms, and treatment of thyroid cancer. He highlights key risk factors such as family history, childhood exposure to ionising radiation, and prior radiation treatments to the head and neck. Common symptoms include a lump or swelling in the neck, voice changes, difficulty swallowing, and enlarged lymph nodes. Diagnosis is typically done through ultrasound and fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). Treatment often involves total thyroidectomy, followed by radioactive iodine therapy or additional treatments depending on the stage and type of cancer.
