Thyroid nodules are a common condition that can be seen in men and women of all ages, especially middle-aged women. Thyroid nodules can be solitary or multiple, with multiple nodules having a higher incidence than single nodules, and single nodules having a higher incidence of thyroid cancer compared to multiple nodules. Patients with thyroid nodules generally have a long history and are asymptomatic in the early stages.

Morphologically, the thyroid gland is diffusely enlarged, glandular tissue hyperplasia, and the follicles are filled with colloid, among which cysts are formed due to hemorrhage and necrosis, and patients with long-term illness may have fibrosis or calcification, ossification. It can be seen that the harm of thyroid nodules is very serious, so what is the matter with thyroid nodules? Next, let's learn more with experts from Guiyang Yunyan Chang'an Hospital.

Nodular goiter occurs more frequently in women than in men. It generally occurs during adolescence and is often present at school age in endemic areas. Goiters vary in size and morphology.

diffuse enlargement initially, often symmetrical on both sides; When nodules form later, they are often asymmetrical on both sides. Nodular goiter may be accompanied by cystic changes, and if accompanied by intracystic hemorrhage, the nodule can grow rapidly in size and cause pain in a short period of time. The surface of the glands is generally flat and soft; When swallowing, the glands move up and down with the larynx and trachea.

Nodular goiter generally does not show functional changes, and the patient's basal metabolic rate is normal; However, when the nodule is large, it can compress the trachea, esophagus, blood vessels, nerves, etc., causing the following symptoms: 1) Compression of the deep large neck vein: It can cause difficulty in blood return in the head and neck.

This condition is more common in large goiters located at the upper thoracic opening, especially retrosternal goiters. The patient's face is swollen with bluish-purple puffiness and marked dilation of superficial veins in the neck and chest. 2) Compression of the recurrent laryngeal nerve:

It can cause vocal cord paralysis (usually on one side), and the patient is hoarse. Compression of the sympathetic ganglion chain in the neck can cause Horner syndrome, which is extremely rare. 3) Compression of the trachea:

Relatively common. compression from one side, displacement or flexion of the trachea to the other; Compression from both sides, narrowing of the trachea, dyspnea, especially in retrosternal goiter. Long-term compression of the tracheal wall can lead to softening of the trachea and causing asphyxia.

4) Esophageal compression: rare. A retrosternal goiter alone may compress the esophagus, causing discomfort when swallowing, but not obstructive symptoms.
