Hi and thanks for the query,
This depends on the gland, type of nodule and results after respective hormones were measured. If the nodule does not cause any compression of nearby structures, nor has any esthetic consequences, not all of them are removed systematically. Careful medical and laboratory and radiologic parameters are taken into consideration before a final decision is usually reached. Kind regards
