If you have thyroid nodules, how far are you from cancer?
How to prevent thyroid cancer in daily life?
The third most common cancer in Fujian
Not all thyroid cancers are "lazy cancers"
The latest "2023 Fujian Province Cancer Registry Annual Report" shows that thyroid cancer ranks third in the incidence of malignant tumors in Fujian Province's cancer registration areas.
Data from the Xiamen Cancer Registry show that:
The current incidence of thyroid cancer in women in our city
For two consecutive years,
The leading cause of malignant tumors in women
Thyroid cancer usually grows slowly, has a high cure rate, and is relatively harmless to humans, so it is also called lazy cancer or happy cancer. Data show that the five-year survival rate of thyroid cancer patients in my country has increased from 67.5% in the 1990s to 84.3% in 2015, making it one of the malignant tumors with the most significant improvement in survival rate. Through standardized treatment, the cure rate of early thyroid cancer has reached more than 90%.
However, Wu Yu, deputy chief physician of the Department of Head and Neck Surgery at Fujian Cancer Hospital, reminded that not all thyroid cancers are "lazy cancers."
Thyroid cancer is mainly divided into papillary carcinoma, follicular carcinoma, medullary carcinoma and undifferentiated carcinoma. Papillary carcinoma and follicular carcinoma account for more than 90% of the cases, with a high degree of differentiation. With standardized treatment, the cure effect is good.
However, if it is medullary carcinoma, it is usually discovered in the late stage and accompanied by distant metastasis, and the treatment effect is poor.
Even more frightening is undifferentiated cancer, which is highly malignant and takes an average of 3 months from discovery to death. Fortunately, there are now targeted therapies that have the potential to extend life by 1-2 years.
In addition, although some thyroid cancers are small, they are close to the trachea, esophagus, nerves, etc., so they cannot be ignored as lazy cancers and must be actively sought for treatment.
The treatment of thyroid cancer is generally dominated by surgery, combined with iodine-131 therapy, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted drug therapy and other treatment methods. According to the different conditions of the patients, an individualized comprehensive treatment plan is jointly developed with the nuclear medicine department, endocrinology department, radiotherapy department, oncology department and other departments.
Therefore, it is recommended that to detect thyroid cancer, a thyroid function test should be done first. If the thyroid function is normal, you can consult the thyroid and breast surgery department of a general hospital or the head and neck surgery department of a specialized hospital.
If you have any problems with your thyroid function, you can consult an endocrinologist. A professional doctor will give you a professional evaluation and professional advice. The most important thing is to have regular follow-up examinations!
How far is a thyroid nodule from cancer?
Thyroid nodules include malignant and benign. Most benign nodules will not develop into cancer, but it is possible that about 5%-15% will develop into malignant. When a thyroid nodule is suspected of being malignant, follow-up observation or thyroid puncture should be performed.
Thyroid cancer is associated with the following high-risk factors
1. Exposure to ionizing radiation, especially frequent chest X-rays and CT scans during childhood;
2. There is a thyroid cancer patient in the family (blood relationship);
3. Metabolic disorders caused by obesity;
4. People who are iodine deficient or taking excessive iodine.
Doctors suggest that since there are almost no symptoms in the early stages of thyroid cancer, preventive screening and early detection are more important:
To prevent thyroid cancer, do these things!
1. It is recommended that healthy people in inland areas consume iodized salt to reduce thyroid diseases caused by iodine deficiency;
2. For those who have thyroid cancer in their immediate family, they should have a thyroid ultrasound examination at least once a year;
3. Patients with chronic thyroiditis and nodular goiter are advised to undergo thyroid ultrasound examination at least once a year;
4. People with hypothyroidism need to supplement thyroid hormone under the guidance of a doctor;
5. Women should be careful to use as little estrogen as possible.
