The thyroid gland is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the bottom of the neck. This gland is a part of a large network of glands called the endocrine glands, that are collectively responsible for coordinating several vital processes. This butterfly-shaped gland controls metabolism and many other physiological processes by secreting a group of essential hormones. The thyroid gland, like any organ in the human body, can be affected by some disorders or diseases that impact its efficacy. The success rate of thyroidectomy exceeds 95%, especially if it is performed carefully and the patient adheres to the prescribed medications post-surgery and follows all the instructions recommended by the doctor.
