Thyroid Nodules
A thyroid nodule is an area of abnormal growth within the thyroid. Some people have a single nodule while others have multiple nodules within the gland.
Fine Needle Aspiration
Fine needle aspiration (FNA), also called fine needle biopsy, is a type of biopsy where a needle is inserted into a lump or mass to collect a sample of cells.
Snoring, Sleeping Disorders, and Sleep Apnea
Snoring is bothersome to others, but it can also be a sign of a more serious condition known as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Pediatric Thyroid Cancer
Thyroid nodules are uncommon in childhood, and pediatric thyroid cancer is uncommon. Still, it is the most common endocrine malignancy in children.
Pediatric Sleep-disordered Breathing
Pediatric sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is a general term for breathing difficulties occurring during sleep.
