What should the TSH value be after hemisection of thyroid cancer

After hemisection of thyroid cancer, generally refers to after hemisection of thyroid cancer, the TSH value should be 4.2-6.0μIU/ml. TSH is the abbreviation of thyroid stimulating hormone, which is a specific indicator for diagnosing hyperthyroidism. After hemisection of thyroid cancer, the entire thyroid gland is generally required to be removed, and lymph node dissection should be performed at the same time. After hemisection of thyroid cancer, the TSH value should be based on the surgical situation, the patient's specific situation, etc., under the guidance of a professional doctor, for specific postoperative monitoring and treatment.

1. Surgery: If the patient's tumor is relatively large, the tumor invades the surrounding tissues seriously, and a large area of ​​thyroid tissue is removed during the operation, thyroid hormone reduction may occur after the operation, and the TSH value should be controlled at 4.2-6.0μIU/ml. If the patient's tumor is relatively small, the tumor invasion of surrounding tissues is not serious, and the surgical resection area is relatively small, thyroid hormone can be gradually reduced to normal levels by monitoring after the operation;

2. Specific conditions of the patient: Before surgery, if the patient is in the early stage of thyroid cancer, has no distant metastasis, lymph node metastasis, etc., and is in good physical condition, with a positive and optimistic attitude, the TSH value should be controlled at 4.2-6.0μIU/ml. If the patient is in the middle and late stages of thyroid cancer, has lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, etc., and is in poor physical condition, with a negative and depressed attitude, the TSH value should be controlled at 3.0μIU/ml.

In addition to the surgical situation, the TSH value is also related to the degree of postoperative thyroid hormone suppression. The degree of thyroid hormone suppression should be adjusted according to the patient's specific situation under the guidance of a professional doctor.
