Goiter is the enlargement of the thyroid gland.
Goiter ba ang cancer simply means the Goiter Cancer.
No, no food can cause a goiter.
Goiter is a disease of the thyroid gland.
Goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid gland.
Goiter- cause, cure and reason it appeared
Abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland is called goiter.
Hyperplasia of the Thyroid gland occurs as a result of dyshormonogenic goiter, endemic goiter, Graves' disease, or due to multinodular goiter.
Goiter's are locally contraindicated, meaning you can not massage directly over the goiter itself, massage on the rest of the body is still fine.
The MINERAL which prevents goiter disease is Iodine
Treatment for simple goiter, which is an enlargement of the thyroid gland without associated thyroid dysfunction, typically includes iodine supplementation if the goiter is due to iodine deficiency. In some cases, monitoring the goiter may be sufficient if there are no symptoms or complications. If the goiter is large or causing symptoms, surgical removal may be considered. Hormonal therapy with levothyroxine may also be used to shrink the goiter in certain cases.
An enlargement of the thyroid (goiter) caused when groups of cells collect to form nodules.
PathophysiologyThe histopathology varies with etiology and age of the goiter. Initially, uniform follicular epithelial hyperplasia (diffuse goiter) is present with an increase in thyroid mass. As the disorder persists, the thyroid architecture loses uniformity, with the development of areas of involution and fibrosis interspersed with areas of focal hyperplasia. This process results in multiple nodules (multinodular goiter). On nuclear scintigraphy, some nodules are hot, with high isotope uptake (autonomous) or cold, with low isotope uptake, compared with the normal thyroid tissue. The development of nodules correlates with the development of functional autonomy and reduction in thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels. Clinically, the natural history of a nontoxic goiter is growth, nodule production, and functional autonomy resulting in thyrotoxicosis in a minority of patients.Signs / symptomsdyspneastridorHemorrhagebronchitisdysphagia.hoarseness.facial plethoraand dilated neck veins
