Thyroid surgery — thyroidectomy — is recommended for thyroid nodules that are malignant or suspicious on biopsy, significantly enlarged goitres causing compression symptoms, or hyperthyroidism not controlled by medication. Performed by an experienced ENT head and neck surgeon, the risks to the recurrent laryngeal nerve and parathyroid glands are minimised, and most patients are discharged within one to two days.
