Thyroidology (THYROID GLAND) with Kepal Patel

1288.112 - 1312.451 Dr. Kepal Patel

It does. So, you know, the term goiter is just basically an enlargement of your thyroid gland. It's almost always benign. It's an overgrowth of your thyroid. And, you know, I think everybody at some point has probably seen pictures in National Geographic or whatever, where you have these huge goiters, huge thyroid masses. And it's almost always either familial or iodine deficiency. Yeah.
