How is the treatment of thyroid adenoma in Israel carried out? Our methods

At Top Ihilov, the following methods are used for the removal of follicular adenoma:

  • For small adenomas and with a favorable prognosis, a laser - non-surgical method of removal is sometimes used.
  • Lobectomy of the thyroid gland. Removal of one of the lobes of the thyroid. Can be performed with or without resection of the isthmus.
  • Thyroidectomy. Radical surgical removal of the entire thyroid gland, with both lobes, and in some cases - with surrounding lymph nodes.

The volume of surgical intervention for the treatment of follicular thyroid adenoma at the Ihilov clinic is determined by the degree of organ involvement and a number of other factors.

Diagnosis of thyroid adenoma. How will your first days in Israel be organized?

thyroid adenoma

Follicular adenomas are benign tumours of the thyroid gland, accounting for about 15 - 20% of other benign formations of the thyroid. The disease is more common in younger individuals. The danger lies in the fact that an adenoma can coexist with malignant tumours (and thyroid cancer can be mistakenly taken for an adenoma), therefore patients with thyroid adenoma require in-depth diagnostics and subsequent medical monitoring.

First day

Upon arrival at the Top Ihilov clinic, the patient undergoes a consultation with a leading endocrinologist. The specialist will analyze the medical history, review the results of previous examinations that the patient underwent at our clinic or in their home country. After examining the patient, the endocrinologist will issue a referral for additional diagnostics if necessary, or establish a final diagnosis based on which a treatment program will be developed.

Second day

On the second day, the patient undergoes diagnostic procedures. In the treatment of thyroid adenoma in Israel, at the Top Ihilov clinic, the following methods of accurate early diagnosis are used:

  • Physical examination. During this procedure, a thyroid nodule is identified in the patient, which has a round shape, smooth and even surface, clear contours, and the consistency of the nodule is elastic or firm-elastic. The nodule shifts during swallowing.
  • Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (controlled by ultrasound), is performed to differentiate cystadenoma from a cyst. After the removal of fluid, in the presence of cystadenoma, a nodular formation is observed.
  • Ultrasound. This study allows visualization of a round-shaped nodule, with a rim around it, indicating the presence of a well-defined tumour capsule.
  • Radionuclide scanning shows the presence of a "cold" nodule, with unchanged levels of T3, T4, and TSH.

The most important significance in the diagnosis of adenoma is the study of ultrasound and biopsy with subsequent cytological examination. The diagnostic program for follicular adenomas of the thyroid at the Top Ihilov clinic will be conducted in optimal timeframes and with the most accurate results.

Third day

On the third day, an expert group develops a preliminary treatment plan. The group includes leading specialists from various fields: endocrinologists, otolaryngologists, oncologists. Subsequently, the experts monitor the patient's condition during treatment and rehabilitation, adjusting the program if necessary.

Diagnostic procedures

  • Ultrasound
  • Biopsy and histological studies
