Patient's question:
Today I went to the hospital for a physical examination. The results showed that my thyroid nodule has progressed to encapsulation. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Thyroid nodules with advanced encapsulation may require surgery. When a thyroid nodule has a capsule, it is more likely to be a thyroid tumor. If it has already advanced to encapsulation, it could be due to the nodule growing, or it could also be caused by the adenoma continuing to deteriorate. Detailed diagnosis through color Doppler ultrasound or fine-needle aspiration biopsy is necessary. After diagnosis, different treatment plans will be adopted based on different conditions.
