@grossanatomypodcast: Yes, you can take out just the isthmus, the bridge of tissue connecting the left and right lobes of the thyroid. This procedure, called an isthmusectomy, is highly specific and allows us surgeons to treat localized issues in the center of your gland while preserving the rest of your thyroid tissue. #thyroidproblems #thyroidsurgery #thyroidsurgeon #drjasoncohen
