Thyroid removal surgery, also called thyroidectomy with modified neck dissection, is a surgical procedure that involves removing some or all of the thyroid gland in the neck. This procedure also includes the removal of all the lymph nodes (small sacs that help drain bodily fluid) in the neck. This procedure may be appropriate for individuals who have a thyroid tumor, thyroid nodules, or hyperthyroidism, which occurs when the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone.
