Thyroid Removal Surgery Procedure

Before starting the thyroid removal surgery, the surgeon discusses the patient’s symptoms, family history, and other previous illnesses in detail. This is very important as it significantly helps during and after the surgery.
After this, the surgeon gives anesthesia to ensure that the patient feels less pain during the surgery.
Then surgeon makes a small incision that is less than an inch long in the neck. Thin, hollow tubes which are called Trocars are inserted through these incisions, providing access to the laparoscopic instruments.

During laparoscopic thyroidectomy, the surgeon carefully separates the thyroid gland from adjacent tissues which are important for calcium regulation and voice function. With precise maneuvering, the gland is delicately separated from its connection to the trachea. The extent of gland removal whether a lobectomy (one lobe) or thyroidectomy (whole gland) depends on the underlying condition such as thyroid cancer or a large goiter. This method is safe and helps in completely removing the affected tissue while reducing the risk of damage to surrounding structures.
