INTRODUCTION
What is Thyroid Gland?
The thyroid gland is a ductless endocrine
gland situated in the anterior/front portion of
the neck. It roughly resembles the shape of
a butterfly. It is also one of the largest
endocrine glands, weighing an average of
25 – 30 g. This gland has two lobes on
either side of the trachea, with each lobe
measuring 4 – 6 cm in length and 1.3 – 1.8
cm in width.
