Thyroidectomy – Safe & Precise Surgical Removal of the Thyroid Gland

Thyroidectomy is a surgical procedure to remove part or all of the thyroid gland. It is recommended in cases of thyroid nodules, goiter, hyperthyroidism, or thyroid cancer. Depending on the condition, patients may undergo a partial (lobectomy) or total thyroidectomy.

Performed by Dr. Praveen C R, Senior Consultant – General, GI & Laparoscopic Surgery, this procedure ensures minimal complications, nerve safety, and optimal hormonal balance through advanced surgical techniques and careful post-operative care.

Why is Thyroidectomy Performed?

  • Suspicious or cancerous thyroid nodules
  • Enlarged thyroid (goiter) causing swallowing or breathing difficulty
  • Overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism/Graves’ disease)
  • Recurring cysts or cosmetic concerns

Types of Thyroidectomy Procedures

  • Total Thyroidectomy: Removal of the entire thyroid gland
  • Hemithyroidectomy (Lobectomy): Removal of one thyroid lobe
  • Completion Thyroidectomy: Second surgery to remove the remaining thyroid after partial removal
