Abstract

The COVID-19 outbreak in Italy forced the healthcare system to cancel all non-urgent outpatient activities in order to avoid further spread of the disease inside hospitals and other healthcare facilities. At our institution, all thyroid nodule activities were canceled between March and May 2020, though the hospital allowed treatment and consultations for all cancer patients. For these patients, the medical team distinguished patients with immediate needs from patients whose procedures could be postponed
