About Thyroid Removal Surgery (Thyroidectomy)

Thyroid removal surgery, also known as thyroidectomy, involves removing part or all of the thyroid gland. It is performed to treat thyroid nodules, goiter, thyroid cancer, or hyperthyroidism. At Paras Hospital, Srinagar, our board-certified surgeons use both conventional and minimally invasive approaches to ensure effective treatment and faster recovery.
