A seminar titled ‘Thyroid Nodule and Cancer: Update and Beyond’ was held on Monday at the Block Auditorium of Bangladesh Medical University (BMU), where experts stated that most thyroid cancer patients recover completely with proper treatment. Only a small number of cases show poor outcomes. The findings were presented by Professor Dr. K. M. M. Abdus Sattar of the Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery in his paper ‘Paradigm Shift in the Surgical Management of Thyroid Cancer’.
Speakers at the seminar said research shows that many thyroid cancer patients can remain healthy for a long time with partial thyroid removal (hemithyroidectomy). Some thyroid cancers remain stable for years without posing risks, emphasizing the need for physicians to understand the disease’s behavior to reduce both treatment risk and cost. They also noted that advanced treatment options are now available for more severe cases, urging patients to seek timely medical care instead of panicking.
The event was chaired by Professor Dr. Afzalun Nesar and attended by BMU Pro-Vice Chancellors Dr. Md. Abul Kalam Azad and Dr. Md. Mujibur Rahman Howlader, who stressed the importance of public awareness and research on thyroid cancer.
