[The results of the surgical treatment of thyroid diseases in children].
The results of surgical treatment of various forms of diseases of the thyroid gland in 254 children are analysed in follow-up periods of 12 months to 20 years. Functional compensation of the thyroid occurred in all patients with nodular forms of goiter who were subjected to operation which did not exceed hemithyroidectomy in volume. The analysis showed that operative treatment of children with the diffuse toxic form of goiter attended by the autoimmune component lead to hypothyroidism in 76.6% of patients, whatever the activity of the thyroid tissue, and a recurrence developed in 11.7% of those who were operated on. In children without the autoimmune component postoperative hypothyroidism was found in 48.6% of those examined, a recurrence was found in 3.2% of cases. The indications for operative treatment are specified, measures for the prevention of postoperative complications are listed.
