What should I do next?

I'm really worried about my mom, who's 47 and has been diagnosed with a colloid nodular goitre. The size is 80mm, and I'm wondering if she really needs surgery. If she does, are there any risks involved? I'm just feeling a bit anxious about the whole thing.
For a 47-year-old woman with an 80mm colloid nodular goiter, surgical removal (thyroidectomy) may be recommended if the goiter is causing symptoms like difficulty swallowing, breathing, or neck discomfort, or if there's suspicion of malignancy; however, surgery carries risks like vocal cord damage, hypoparathyroidism, and bleeding, so it's essential to consult an endocrinologist or thyroid surgeon to discuss the risks and benefits and determine the best course of action.
