title: [Behavior of creatine kinase-isoenzyme BB in the nodular pathology of the thyroid (preliminary note)].
abstract: The literature indicates the presence of the BB isoenzyme of creatinakinase in the thyroid tissue. The CKBB, therefore, was dosed with radioimmunologic method in a group of 79 patients bearing nodular pathology of thyroid (12 carcinomata, 42 nodular strumata, 25 adenomata), to check whether such parameter could be used as marker in the thyroid neoplasms. The CKBB, however, did not show a statistically different behaviour in the three classes of pathology considered.
