title: [Thyroid cancer in male patients].

Early-stage cancers were detected in 63 cases (54.9%). Radiotherapy as a component of combined treatment was the most popular modality (43.2%), due to the malignant character of locally-advancer tumor. Ten-year survival was in 65.2%, while, in 11.9%, radical surgery was not indicated.
