Thyroid cancer may not be cured without surgery. Thyroid cancer is a malignant tumor that can be divided into papillary thyroid cancer, follicular thyroid cancer, medullary thyroid cancer, and anaplastic thyroid cancer. It is generally less malignant. Whether thyroid cancer needs surgery needs to be analyzed based on specific circumstances, such as tumor size, whether there is distant metastasis, and the patient's specific situation. 1. Tumor size: If the patient's tumor is relatively small, belongs to the early stage tumor, has not metastasized to distant places, and the patient is in good physical condition, it is likely to recover after surgical resection. Even if there is a recurrence, it is relatively small and will not cause a major impact on the patient's body. 2. Whether there is distant metastasis: If the patient's tumor is relatively large and has distant metastasis, such as lung metastasis, liver metastasis, etc., then surgical treatment cannot make the tumor disappear, and may not even improve. The patient needs radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other related treatments; 3. Specific conditions of the patient: If the patient is elderly and has severe heart, lung, liver, and kidney damage, and the underlying disease cannot tolerate surgery, then it is difficult to cure without surgery and conservative treatment is required. If the patient is young, has good physical fitness, and the tumor has not metastasized to distant sites, then the condition may improve after surgical resection; 4. Other situations: If the patient's thyroid cancer is medullary cancer, it is highly malignant and even after surgical resection, the recurrence rate is high and the patient may not be cured. In addition, if the patient's compliance is poor and he cannot cooperate with the treatment, the condition may not improve. It is recommended that patients with thyroid cancer undergo regular follow-up examinations after surgical resection to understand their recovery and their own condition. At the same time, they should pay attention to maintaining good living habits, avoid staying up late, overwork, etc., and maintain a happy mood to promote recovery from the disease. |
