What does thyroid cancer pending deletion mean

Thyroid cancer is pending deletion, which usually means that the imaging examination results of thyroid cancer have not been determined to be malignant by doctors and need further pathological examination. Thyroid cancer is a common malignant tumor that mainly originates from thyroid follicular epithelial cells. The cause of the disease is related to genetics, ionizing radiation, insufficient or excessive iodine intake and other factors.

1. Clinical manifestations: Patients with thyroid cancer generally have no obvious symptoms in the early stages. As the disease progresses, symptoms such as neck lumps, hoarseness, and difficulty swallowing may occur;

2. Imaging examination: If you suspect thyroid cancer, you can go to the hospital for imaging examinations, such as ultrasound examinations, CT examinations, etc. Imaging examinations can determine whether there are lesions in the thyroid gland and can assist in diagnosing whether malignant changes have occurred;

3. Pathological examination: If the imaging examination results show suspicious malignancy, further pathological examination is required. Pathological examination is the main method for diagnosing thyroid cancer. It can be obtained through puncture biopsy or surgical resection. Whether there are abnormal cells in the slice under a microscope can also be used to determine whether malignant changes have occurred;

4. Other tests: If you suspect thyroid cancer, you can also go to the hospital for laboratory tests, such as serum calcitonin determination, blood routine test, etc. Serum calcitonin determination can be used to detect whether the serum calcitonin level of patients with thyroid cancer is elevated, while blood routine test can understand whether the number of white blood cells and red blood cells is normal.

For people who are suspected of having thyroid cancer, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment in time. In daily life, you should pay attention to maintaining a good attitude and avoid excessive tension and anxiety.
