Goiter surgery for recurrent hyperthyroidism VnExpress A 65-year-old man, Dung, underwent surgery to remove a 15 cm goiter caused by recurrent hyperthyroidism.
Goiter extends into chest, restricting airway VnExpress Lan, 56, used herbal remedies and traditional medicine to treat her goiter, causing it to grow and descend into her chest, compressing her trachea.
Why does a goiter descend into the chest? VnExpress I have a small lump in my neck, and friends have advised me to have surgery because goiters can descend into the chest. Why does this happen, and is it dangerous? (Le Tan, Da Nang)
