So as not to contract thyroid Taknqk

So as not to contract thyroid Taknqk


Vary the contract in terms of the size of the thyroid ... In some cases, these nodes do not micro result in any trouble, so do not notice the patient. In other cases, may reach the size of these nodes to several centimeters and put pressure on the trachea or the esophagus. Doctors use several methods for the diagnosis of thyroid contract and see if they require treatment as well as determine the appropriate method of treatment. Not all nodes need to thyroid treatment.

Says Dr. Michael Weber, a specialist in nuclear medicine in the hospital, "Asclepius St. George" in Hamburg: «When the doctors felt the neck in search of the lymph nodes swollen, they notice a lot of the contract the thyroid, especially in the winter». And some men notice these nodes thyroid during shaving. The trouble caused by the change of the status of thyroid hormones may be an indication of the incidence of thyroid contract; The increase in the excess of thyroid hormones may result in heart rate, weight loss and hyperactivity. The severe limitation of hormones, can lead to weight gain, weakness and fatigue.

If the doctors noted the presence of indicators of the presence of a thyroid gland, they are conducting an ultrasound. These waves can actually monitor the thyroid contract of less than one centimeter. And indicators of malignant tumors, says Dr. Weber: «The Echo tissue and calcification spot and the border is coordinated between the contract and the bleeding is interesting to consider may be pointers to the presence of a malignant tumor».

In the case of thyroid nodes with a diameter of one centimeter, are used to spread radioactive pulsed imaging method (Scintigraphy) conducted by the nuclear medicine specialists. And monitor the activity of this method of imaging the thyroid gland, thyroid, or rather the contract and serves as a pointer to the process of metabolism. Weber explains how to perform this way, saying: «the patient is injected radioactive material Altknhim through a vein. The thyroid gland absorbs this article, such as iodine, but they are not subject to metabolism. Shows the activity of the thyroid gland on the screen of a color imaging device, depending on the amount absorbed by the thyroid gland from radioactive material ». And pick up the Professor Jochen Cosman, head of endocrine surgery in the hospital «Sean» Party in Hamburg, Germany to talk and says: «For more clarity, can be used to the way acupuncture minute, where samples are taken from the cells of the thyroid gland».

Comes to mind the following question: When the results of tests require the patient to undergo surgery? Prof. Cosman and answers: «doctor should think of resorting to surgery, if there are indications to the existence of a malignant tumor or if you contract the trachea or esophagus or if there is an overactive thyroid gland». However, the surgery involves some risk, Cosman says: «of the risks involved in thyroid surgery, nerve damage to vocal cords, which is of concern to patients who need a voice in their employment». And other risks of a failure in the function of the thyroid glands that control secondary metabolism of calcium through the hormone «parathormone».

To treat an overactive thyroid gland, the doctor resorted to drugs known as inhibitors of the thyroid gland, which have side effects is liver damage. So should not use these drugs for years. If it did not cause the contract in an overactive thyroid gland, are used to thyroid hormones or compensatory Aleodadat compounds, to treat the contract or enlarged thyroid gland. And treatment of goitre, says Professor Martin Grusindorv, a member of the German Society for Endocrinology (DGE) in Altdorf: «drugs lead to the demise of the normal thyroid completely, but to prevent the continuation of inflation».

Radioactive iodine treatment is the possibility of an alternative in case of benign tumors. And cases where doctors resort to this method, says Dr. Michael Weber: «following treatment with radioactive iodine in the forefront of treatment options if the thyroid had been before surgery or if surgery is high risk or if the patient refused to undergo surgery
