Скачать или смотреть What are the main types of Thyroid Cancer? | Dr. Francis Hall

In this Q&A video, Dr Francis Hall explains the main types of thyroid cancer and how they differ in behaviour and outcomes. He discusses well-differentiated thyroid cancers — papillary and follicular — which generally have excellent long-term outcomes with appropriate treatment, and how they appear and behave differently.

Dr Hall also explains how untreated papillary thyroid cancer commonly spreads to lymph nodes in the neck, while follicular thyroid cancer may spread to distant organs such as the lungs, liver, or bones. He then covers the less common but more serious forms: medullary thyroid cancer, which can run in families, and anaplastic thyroid cancer, a rare but highly aggressive disease.

This video provides a clear overview to help viewers understand thyroid cancer types and patterns of spread.
