1:43 Dr. Perkins' Presentation
4:13 Choosing Surgical Approach Considerations
Dr. Perkins provides an overview of clinical factors that impact the decision of choosing between lobectomy versus total thyroidectomy.
7:25 Rising Thyroglobulin Level
Dr. Perkins presents a case of a 68-year-old female with left thyroid nodule noted incidentally on a carotid ultrasound. This patient underwent a left hemi-thyroidectomy and presented with rising thyroglobulin levels five years after surgery. Dr. Perkins presents other studies to examine whether thyroglobulin post-lobectomy is reliable.
16:30 Completion Thyroidectomy
Dr. Perkins presents a case of a 35-year-old female with palpable thyroid nodule noted on physical examination. FNA revealed a 1.9 cm papillary thyroid cancer, tall cell variant. Dr. Perkins evaluates whether this patient should receive completion thyroidectomy, and if so, whether this patient should receive radioactive iodine ablation.
23:36 Vascular Invasion
Dr. Perkins shares a case of a 54-year-old woman who underwent a right lobectomy. As this patient presented with two vessels of vascular invasion, Dr. Perkins examines the impact of vascular invasion and capsular invasion.
