title: [Morphological characteristics of nodular goiters in Latvia].
abstract: Examinations of nodular forms of euthyroid and thyrotoxic strumas established direct relationshps between the level of hydrolytic and oxidative-reductive enzymes under study and the ultrastructural organization of the tissue. A marked decrease of the functional activity in nodes of euthyroid goiter was found whereas high functional activity was observed in nodes of thyrotoxic strumas.
