title: [Thyroid diseases. Impulses for the ORL-physician].
abstract: Diseases of the thyroid gland are not uncommon. Understanding the basics of physiology, pathophysiology, endocrinology and nuclear medicine, the otolaryngologist very often will uncover pathologic findings which he previously might have overlooked. A systematic evaluation of thyroid disorders will result in a worthwhile and fascinating collaboration among specialists in internal and nuclear medicine as well as specialists in surgery.
