The Thyroid  is a butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck, exactly above the collarbone. It is one of the endocrine glands that produce hormones. Thyroid hormones control the speed of several exercises in the body.

These contain how fast you burn calories and how fast your smoothies are. All of these exercises are your body’s metabolism. To diagnose thyroid problems correct medical history, physical quizzes, and thyroid tests. Sometimes they even resort to an autopsy.

What is an Endoscopy?

Endoscopy is a non-surgical procedure performed using a scope, a flexible tube with a camera and light at the tip. This allows your surgeon to see inside your body and perform procedures without making larger incisions, allowing for easier recovery time and less pain and discomfort. Endoscopic procedures are most often used for diagnosis.

What is an endoscope?

During an endoscopy, the surgeon inserts a tool called an endoscope into a person’s body. Most endoscopes are thin tubes with a powerful light and miniature camera at the end.

The endoscope’s length and flexibility depend upon the part of the body the doctor needs to see.

For example, a straight endoscope helps the surgeon look at joints. Meanwhile, a flexible one helps a doctor inspect the inside of the colon.

Why is endoscopic surgery done?

Endoscopy is performed for diagnosis and inspection as well as treatment and surgery. Endoscopic surgery is used in several fields of medicine: in gynecology, endoscopic surgery, called hysteroscopy, is very common for treating uterine pathologies, such as cysts, endometriosis, myomas, and also for performing tubal ligation, investigating infertility, or hysterectomy (removal of the uterus). However, these pathologies are also frequently treated using laparoscopy, in which the surgery is performed via a small cut made in the abdominal wall. It is also used in different fields, such as otorhinolaryngology, in which sinonasal endoscopic surgery is very common for healing lesions or problems of the nose that impair normal breathing, affect the sense of smell, or cause face or head pain. Also, in general, and gastrointestinal surgery endoscopy or laparoscopy may be used in surgery for obesity. Endoscopy may also be performed in emergencies, for example in neurosurgery to treat brain hemorrhage or a cerebrovascular accident (stroke).

Care following the intervention

The main benefit of endoscopic surgery in comparison to other surgical techniques is that it’s of a less invasive type, which allows a faster recovery. So, you will be hospitalized only for a few hours, sometimes being discharged on the same day as the intervention. Generally, your endoscopy surgeon can advise you to resume your daily activities 48-72 hours after the intervention. Postoperative discomfort is also less, so complete rest is not required and you can pursue your life as normal.
