Just visited ENT yesterday. They will be performing this procedure, as well as a R-Thyroidectomy (my L Thyroid was removed 2 years ago). I'm not sure if this video was a good thing or a bad thing. I guess it doesn't really matter. It's going to happen, regardless of my level of disturbance. I do appreciate your clear step-by-step description of the process. How I process this information is entirely up to me.
@@Algebrainiac My apologies for being so late to reply. For some reason, I'm only receiving notifications on a laptop I don't typically use. To answer your question, I'm cancer free (knock on wood). The Surgeon removed 27 lymph nodes, 2 of which were cancerous. It took quite a while before I began feeling like I wanted/needed to get out of bed, but I eventually did. I'm stable on 150mg Levothyroxine. A couple of things I did not fully appreciate: The scar is pretty visible (to me). It's fine, I just thought given how nice others looked in comparison. Also, I still have more numbness around the left side. I say left side because I have numbness from the top of my left ear and in different areas from my chin to my collarbone. Again, a small trade off in the great scheme of things, but it is "a thing." Bottom-line: I look at it as a sort of a trade-off. As long as the procedure and everything related to it remains "successful," I'm good with a few minor inconveniences. Thanks for asking.
Thanks! And please publish more detailed video from beginning up to end ! Please! Thank you ! You are best ! تشکر ! 👏👏👏👏! I'm in maxillofacial surgery! I need to your guidance!
Just amazing surgeon are so really really smart unbelievable the stuff that they know even to learn is just it's a miracle that they can do this stuff I have such the utmost respect for all these surgeons thank you
I had a dissection from the left side of my neck last week for further biopsy as the original biopsy was not enough to determine which lymphoma I have. It was painful and 5 times I needed more local anaesthetic. I was there for nearly 3 hours, so took longer than expected and they could only manage to take a large sample as they said it was too risky taking the whole thing as it was too close to all the nerves in my face, as my lymph node is quite high up just under my ear. I am 4 days post op, still swollen and bruised, but the pain is minimal now, as long as I don't accidently touch it, but I still can't sleep on my left side. It was a strange experience, I do wish they would have put me to sleep.
I just got my thyroid removed and a left neck dissection for Thyroidcancer (papillairy) but they forgot level 6 where two lymbnodes are left 14mm and 8mm... they recommend me to undergo several RAI treatments instead of surgery as it is a complicated and riskfull surgery the surgion said. But they want me to deside. What is your advise?
I have a problem like this for 15yrs now ,I got opareshion in 2011at kcmc hospital in Tanzania but not removed.,Please I need help what can I do? My name is Linda I'm 48 yrs
this is like an expert butcher who knows his stuff well. However, what I am not understanding is why someone needs to remove a complete part of a human being? doesn't everything have a specific function? will they end up vulnerable after losing this thyroid? Aren't there other alternatives to getting rid of the disease?
It is a potentially metastatic cancer, they need to preserve the life of the patient, and sometimes the only option is surgery. Also thyroid function can be substituted by synthetic thyroid hormone replacement, which is lifelong, inexpensive, but the patients can live a normal life with it.
You surgeons deserve every penny… Insurance executives, not to much

I had a central and left neck dissection with my TT. I was in the OR 12 hours. These are tedious surgeries requiring exceptional skill.
Amazing talent and knowledge

I have had that done
How are you doing now hopefully everything is going fine for u!!!
How long does the swelling stay
I’m having lots of pain in my lymph node. I’ve had lymphadenopathy since early 2020.
Will the neck lose some of its functions after the dissection?
Well done!
Thanks
You working on neck like Dafinchi drawing on a paper.
Thank you so much
I’m having this surgery cuz I have thyroid cancer :/
Hopefully everything went well for you!!! How are you doing now? And what exactly did u have?
@Dee Bee did you go check it I’m hopping everything is going good for you as well!!!
They talk bout lymph node surgery on me. It look like you cut out a lot. I think only one effecting me.
Did u just remove the submandibular lymph nodes that too from such lower incision
How quickly does the fat removed replenish itself?
Big job, but I wonder how many parts u had to sacrifice
Great videos. Excellent.
excelente disección, muy bien logrado
Thats exactly what I had.

They only removed the Left Lateral Lymph nodes and not the Thyroid.

putted? are ya fuckin stupid?
