About the disease
Thyroid cancer is a cancer that starts in the thyroid gland, a small butterfly-shaped gland located in the front of the neck that helps control the body’s metabolism. It occurs when cells in the thyroid grow out of control and form a tumor, which can sometimes spread to other parts of the body.
