What are lung nodules after thyroidectomy CT scan?
Patient's Query
I am a 47 year old male i had post thyroidectomy and recently got a CT scan and it shows subcentrimetric nodules scattered in the lungs so what does that mean
Answered by Dr. Shweta Bansal
Following your thyroid surgery and the CT scan, some small nodules were spotted in your lungs. These are very common little growths that hardly ever have any symptoms attached to them. They could have been caused by many things such as infections or past illnesses. In most cases, no action needs to be taken concerning these growths but you need to keep visiting a doctor to check up on them frequently. If you start feeling unusual in any way like continuous coughing or struggling to breathe, please inform your physician immediately.
