A thyroid nodule is a lump that appears on the thyroid gland in the neck. It is a type of thyroid disease and represents a "different" lesion that radiologically differs from the surrounding thyroid parenchyma.
In most cases, this condition is harmless and not caused by a serious disease. However, when the lump begins to enlarge or the thyroid nodule interferes with thyroid hormone production, a number of symptoms can arise.
The purpose of evaluating a thyroid nodule is to determine whether it is malignant.
It is important to understand the history, physical examination, laboratory tests, and management algorithm for thyroid nodules.
Dr. Rulli Rosandi, SpPD, KEMD, a member of the Division of Endocrine, Metabolic, and Diabetes at the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Brawijaya - Dr. Saiful Anwar Hospital, Malang, will systematically explain "Thyroid Nodules."
