Five Doctors: Why is the thyroid worth saving?
The thyroid is a vital endocrine organ. The standard of care for benign thyroid nodules is surgery to remove the thyroid. The common medical thinking is that the thyroid is disposable and easily replaced with medication. But so many patients notice a significant decrease in quality of life after thyroidectomy. These five doctors offer their perspective on how saving the thyroid is so worthwhile and how that is now possible through thyroid RFA.

Thanks you so much for this video. It gives me hope. Surgery has been recommended to me twice even after having benign nodules from my biopsies and normal levels. I’m very excited about this RFA procedure.
hi maam considering that there are so many technology coming out why thyroidictomy is not yet ban hence it might control by RFA and other procedures applicable
This is an excellent overview of why it’s important to keep your thyroid if possible, including commentary from thyroid surgeons as well as endos.

Absolutely, surgery can be necessary in some cases. But it's overused today and new technology is allowing for that in appropriate cases. I'm glad the surgery saved your life.
