I've reviewed all these websites, and added at least 10 questions to my list for my surgeons... having a tumor removed from my carotid artery in July, and they will also be doing FNA's on thyroid and lymph lymph beforehand, and will take care of whatever they find, during surgery on their way in to the carotid artery.
