Thyroid cancer is a common malignant tumor of the head and neck, accounting for 1% to 2% of all malignant tumors in the body. It is more common in women. The prognosis of thyroid cancer is relatively good. Most thyroid cancers occur in young and middle-aged people. It is rare in the elderly, and the malignancy is high, so the prognosis is poor.
