[Goiter with multiple recurrences].
An analysis of treatment of 38 patients with multiple recurrences has demonstrated that these are caused by various factors, a combination of several causes and predisposing factors being noted in the majority of patients. Most frequently, multiple recurrences develop in persons operated upon in young age. The clinic of multiply recurrent goiter is characterized by a great variety, and its diagnosis should be established basing on the complex investigation, using all up-to-date methods of study. A predominance of nodular forms of goiter in patients with multiple reocurrences and their frequent malignant transformation necessitate active surgical tactics.
