title: [Deficiency of the triiodothyronine pool in patients with stomach cancer].
abstract: Thyroid status was evaluated in 265 patients with gastric pathology. The degree of tissue triiodothyronine (T3) deficiency was assessed versus stage and histologic pattern of tumor. Also, it was measured before and after surgery. No correlation was found in gastric cancer patients between T3 concentration, degree of blood--T3 level decrease and tissue T3 deficiency, on the one hand, and stage and histologic pattern of tumor, radical surgery and postoperative treatment, on the other. Said T3 parameters differed significantly in cases of chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer and polyps.
