    Main Methods:

    • Review of therapeutic modalities for thyroid disorders.
    • Analysis of the impact of non-surgical treatments on surgical indications.
    • Discussion of the current place of surgery in the multidisciplinary approach.

    Main Results:

    • Non-surgical therapies (antithyroid drugs, beta-blockers, radioactive iodine, external irradiation) have refined the indications for thyroid surgery.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Radioactive iodine is now primarily used for hyperthyroid patient preparation for surgery.
  • Surgery is established as a primary treatment modality for various thyroid conditions.

    • Conclusions:

    • Surgical treatment for thyroid disorders is sophisticated, reflecting improved pathophysiological understanding.
    • A comprehensive understanding of thyroid physiology and pathophysiology is essential for surgeons performing thyroidectomies.
    • The integration of diverse therapeutic options underscores surgery's vital role in comprehensive thyroid disease care.
