详细描述
In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to mental health among cancer patients.
Thyroid cancer is one of the most frequent endocrine neoplasia. It consists of 4 subtypes of papillary thyroid cancer, follicular thyroid cancer, medullary thyroid cancer, and anaplastic thyroid cancer.
Which is usually asymptomatic in the early stages, but symptoms such as neck pain, hoarseness, and dysphagia may occur as the disease progresses. TC is diagnosed by physical examination, analysis of thyroid hormone levels, imaging, and biopsy.
Anxiety and depression are the most common psychological problems in the treatment of cancer patients and are related to the majority of medical diseases and physical symptoms.
Studies have suggested that anxiety and depression are common in patients with thyroid cancer.
