What is the difference between a fluid- filled nodule and solid nodule?
A thyroid nodule is a lump in or on the thyroid gland. Nodules can be caused by a simple overgrowth of normal thyroid tissue, fluid-filled cysts, inflammation, or a tumor. When there's an overgrowth of normal thyroid tissues, this is commonly referred to as a thyroid adenoma. Thyroid adenomas sometimes form as a result of degenerated cysts, or fluid-filled cavities, in the thyroid.
What is the life span after a cat has had a thyroidectomy?
A thyroidectomy removes the thyroid gland from the neck of the cat and takes away the cat's ability to make thyroid hormone (responsible for controlling basal metabolism) away. If the thyroid was removed due to a benign tumor and the cat is well managed on replacement thyroid hormone, it is reasonable to expect the cat to live a normal life span of 15-18 years. If the thyroid was removed due to a malignant tumor, the cat's life span may be dramatically reduced depending on the aggressiveness and distribution of the metastases.
