Brief Summary

The medical information delivered to the patient before any surgery constitutes an essential and compulsory step during the initial management of the operated patient. There are different reasons for the quantity and quality of medical information retained by the patient. An internet platform with personalized and secure access has been developed. This platform contains, among other things, an explanatory video of thyroid surgery and allows the patient to have access to information on surgical management at any time. The investigators believe that unlimited access for the duration of the study to this platform could reduce the preoperative anxiety level of patients.
