[Carcinoma of the thyroid gland].
A series of 172 surgical cases of thyroid carcinoma accumulated in apprximately 21 years have been classified according to their microscopical patterns as follows: papillary carcinoma, follicular carcinoma, medullary carcinoma with amyloid and anaplastic carcinoma. The author briefly mentions the significance of scintigraphy and of the so-called cold nodules as well as the interrelationship between thyroiditis and thyroid carcinoma. Attention is drawn to the sequelae of cervical irradiation, particularly in young individuals with respect to the possibility of development of thyroid carcinoma within this region.
