CCTV News (Reporter Pan Cong, Zhao Yanling Zhang Keyu, produced Peng Jun): "From the current results of the research, the occurrence of thyroid cancer is not directly related to the intake of iodine."The incidence of thyroid cancer with salt and iodine, many prognosis, incidence of unlimited cancer, filtering thyroid carcinoma, has decreased.Experts remind that the thyroid nodules are found in the physical examination, and they need to go to a large hospital for further examination and diagnosis; benign nodules may be reviewed once every two or three years; thyroid cancer needs to be diagnosed with symptomatic treatment. After surgery, it will be reviewed at least every six months.
CCTV reporter: Many netizens said that the thyroid nodules are common in physical examinations. Generally, there is no need to review. Is this so?
Liu Yuewu: From the perspective of the current onset, if the thyroid nodules are found, a quarter of which is thyroid cancer, so once the nodules are found, the first diagnosis is important.It is recommended to go to a large hospital for corresponding ultrasound examination and then evaluate the diagnosis.If it is a benign nodule, it is generally not easy to develop into thyroid cancer, and it can be reviewed once every 1-3 years; if you are diagnosed or suspected of thyroid cancer, you need to review it once every six months without reviewing it. Do not miss the best time to diagnosis and treatment.
CCTV reporter: Is the thyroid nodule related to excessive edible kelp?
Liu Yuewu: From the current research results, the occurrence of thyroid cancer is not directly related to the intake of iodine.In fact, the incidence of thyroid cancer with poor prognosis with poor prognosis, such as the incidence of unlimized cancer and so foamy thyroid cancer, has decreased.A study in Sweden has shown that salt plus iodine is not directly related to the incidence of thyroid cancer.
CCTV reporter: Thyroid cancer is an inert cancer, does it not need to be treated?
Liu Yuewu: First of all, it must be clear that inertia is that, such as pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, and even gastric cancer, thyroid cancer is inert cancer.But it is a cancer after all, and it is mostly in young and middle -aged women. If you do not pay attention, fake time will bring harm to the human body.We advocate that thyroid cancer must be diagnosed early and discovered early, and according to its location, size, etc., it is necessary to intervene and interfere, not to ignore it.It should be noted that some micro -cancer in the envelope can be appropriately observed, and surgical intervention may not be performed immediately.
CCTV reporter: What factors are related to thyroid cancer?
Liu Yuewu: No exact factors have been found yet.First of all, inheritance is on one aspect. For example, parents have thyroid cancer, so the probability of directly -docked relatives suffering from thyroid cancer increases by 30%-40%compared with ordinary people; secondly, it may be related to long -term contact with radioactive substances.
CCTV reporter: If there is a thyroid nodule, what should I pay attention to in daily life?
Liu Yuewu: At present, the cause of the thyroid nodules is not very clear.It should be reminded that as soon as many people find out the thyroid nodules, it is an incorrect way to replace the iodized salt with iodized salt.Because iodine deficiency can cause thyroid nodules.(School pair Chen Yanhui)
