The thyroid is an endocrine gland responsible for the synthesis of essential hormones for human life. Thyroid diseases are very common, especially nodules. In many cases the treatment is surgical. Thyroid surgery requires complex techniques, given the delicate anatomical structures in the neck, hence it is very important that these are performed by expert surgeons. This is the only way to minimize potential bleeding, voice, or calcium metabolism complications that can affect future quality of life, while improving the prognosis in malignant diseases..
