AI EXPLANATION: A total thyroidectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the entire thyroid gland. The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located in the lower neck that produces hormones responsible for regulating metabolism, energy, and body temperature. During the surgery, a physician makes an incision in the front of the neck to carefully detach and take out all of the thyroid tissue while protecting surrounding nerves and parathyroid glands.
