We Provide Comprehensive Care to Patients Suffering from Head & Neck Conditions

Head and Neck conditions often vary in complexity and treatment options. These are some of the most common head and neck conditions treated by an ENT Head and Neck specialist:

Thyroid Nodules

These are solid or fluid-filled lumps that occur in your thyroid gland. While often non-life-threatening and presenting no symptoms, a small percentage of them can be cancerous. Hence, it is important to receive the appropriate treatment, depending on the type of thyroid nodule.

Thyroid Cancer

An abnormal growth of cells in the thyroid, usually presenting symptoms such as swelling in your neck, voice changes and difficulty swallowing.

Salivary Gland Lumps

These tumours can be either benign or malignant, with the latter requiring surgery and, in some cases, additional treatments. A few commonly occurring salivary gland tumours are:

  • Parotid Gland Lumps
  • Submandibular Gland Lumps
  • Sublingual Gland Lumps

Enlarged Lymph Nodes

It occurs as a result of bacterial or viral infection, and in some rare cases, it can be a symptom of cancer. It’s important to see an ENT Head and Neck Surgeon if you display symptoms of persistent fever, night sweats, rapid weight loss, and if the lymph node has not gone down even after 2 weeks.

Treatments We Offer

Aglow ENT Centre provides diagnosis and treatment solutions for a wide range of head and neck conditions, ensuring every patient receives personalised medical attention. 

Besides medication, our treatments include:

Thyroid Surgery

Also known as Thyroidectomy, this surgical procedure is for patients who are diagnosed with thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), and non-cancerous enlargement of the thyroid (goitre). 

  • Dr Ker Liang is an experienced thyroid surgeon in Singapore who is capable of performing:
      • Total Thyroidectomy: Removal of the entire thyroid gland, which is more common in patients with an enlarged thyroid or a large cancerous tumour.
      • Partial Thyroidectomy (Hemithyroidectomy): Removal of one thyroid lobe.
      • Isthmusectomy: Removal of the central part of the thyroid gland that bridges the two lobes.

Parotid Gland Surgery

Also known as Parotidectomy, this surgery is performed to treat issues with the parotid gland. Preserving the facial nerve during a parotidectomy is crucial to maintaining facial movement and function. Dr Ker Liang is an experienced head and neck parotid surgeon in Singapore who is capable of performing minimally invasive parotidectomy. 

  • For eligible patients, Dr Ker Liang offers a minimally invasive technique known as micro-parotidectomy. This approach allows for:
  • Same-day discharge when possible.
  • Smaller incisions, resulting in minimal scarring and reduced pain.
  • The use of high-magnification and fine instruments for the delicate nature of head and neck procedures.

Excision Biopsy of Lymph Node

This procedure is conducted when other diagnostic tests, like imaging scans and needle biopsies, are inadequate to diagnose the cause of an enlarged lymph node. An excisional biopsy helps find the cause of an enlarged lymph node. During the procedure, the entire enlarged lymph node is removed and sent to a lab for analysis. 

Dr Ker Liang is able to conduct the minimally invasive surgical procedure known as Excision Biopsy of Lymph Node. This approach allows for:

  • Accurate diagnosis of lymphomas and metastases. 
  • Determining the extent of cancer in the body, especially head and neck cancers, by evaluating the lymphatic spread.  
  • Possible therapeutic benefits, especially if the excised lymph node contains localised infection or malignancy.
