    The thyroid is comprised of two main types of cells—follicular cells and c-cells. Follicular cells make and store thyroid hormones—papillary thyroid cancer starts within these cells. This cancer progresses slowly and tends to affect only one lobe of the thyroid gland. Despite its slow growth, it often spreads to the lymph nodes.

    Yes, it is possible to stop growth of Papillary Thyroid Cancer, if distant metastasis hasn’t occurred yet. Treatment modalities available to cure Papillary Thyroid Cancer include thyroidectomy (thyroid gland removal), lobectomy (thyroid lobe removal) and radioactive ablation therapy. Post-thyroidectomy, patients need to take thyroid hormone pills (levothyroxine) daily. Close monitoring of such patients is advised both per and post operatively.
