[Thyroid gland carcinoma from a retrospective view].
The authors analyze a group of 32 patients with thyroid cancer. They always dissect the recurrent nerve and search for the parathyroid glands. They draw attention to the constant course of the branch of the lower thyroid artery beneath the ligament of Berry. In their opinion the basic operation comprises bilateral total lobectomy with cervicocentral lymphadenectomy. In case of scintigraphic, USG or CT evidence of secondaries in the other cervical triangles, they make after some interval a modified cervical dissection. They make a circular resection of the invaded cervical trachea. Peroperative histology makes a so-called single-stage operation possible.
