title: [The clinico-morphological characteristics of thyroid cancer in a region of endemic goiter].
abstract: The study deals with the results of clinico-morphologic analysis of thyroid cancer in 351 patients who have been operated on in the Carpathian Mountain [correction of Prikarpatsky] region endemic for goiter over the period of 25 years. Certain peculiarities of thyroid cancer were established: relatively high occurrence of the disease, specific ratio of basic histologic subtypes, high frequency of early stage cases and regular concomitance of cancer with other thyroid pathologies.
