Thyroidectomy is a surgical procedure to remove all or part of the thyroid gland. It's typically performed when someone has an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) or a thyroid nodule suspected of cancer. After removal, the remaining thyroid tissue or hormone replacement therapy maintains proper hormonal balance.
