Answered by resident doctor Trinh Ngoc Anh - Department of General Internal Medicine, Vinmec Times City International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “How to treat diffuse goiter? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Basedow is hyperthyroidism due to autoimmune causes. The disease is characterized by an enlarged thyroid gland in the form of goiter (distributed enlargement and increased angiogenesis on ultrasound). This disease can be completely cured, so you need to consult an endocrinologist to choose the most suitable method for you.
If you still have questions about diffuse goiter, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
