title: [Decision on the strategy of treatment of patients with medullary cancer of the thyroid].
abstract: The work is based on an analysis of immediate and long-term results of treatment of 138 patients. It was shown that organ-sparing operations in combination with central lymphadenectomy were good for patients with intrathyroid carcinomas. Regional metastases observed by the moment of surgical treatment were a bad prognostic sign. The survival of patients without metastases was similar to that of patients with papillary and follicular cancer of the thyroid gland.
