[Special surgical treatment of patients with nodular tumors of the thyroid gland against the background of diffuse toxic goiter].
The authors have analyzed the results of treatment of 147 patients with diffuse toxic goiter (DTG) operated upon in the St. Petersburg Center of the surgery of the endocrine system organs. Questions of surgical strategy are considered when DTG is combined with nodular forms. The diagnostic potentialities of the methods used are assessed. The incidence of carcinomas in patients with nodular formations and DTG was determined. It was shown that the presence of nodules in the thyroid gland did not influence the nearest and distant results when using the corresponding surgical strategy.
