[Clinico-morphological characteristics of surgically removed thyroid gland of the residents of Primorskii territory].
The authors carried out a histological study of 150 thyroid glands removed for various forms of goiter. Nodular and mixed goiter with frequent signs of degeneration prevailed in residents of the Primorsk region. Histological structure of the majority of them corresponded to the colloidal, mostly to the macrofollicular goiter. A lower percentage of morphological signs of the goiter activity in comparison with the clinical data revealed in the hospitalized patients can be attributed to the efficacy of antithyroidal therapy causing involution of the hyperactive glands. Various types of adenomas chronic thyroiditis and the initial stages of the node malignization were determined only by histological examination.
