[The specific features of the prevalence of thyroid malignancies in an iodine-deficiency area].
The trends in iodine-deficiency morbidity and thyroid malignancy morbidity and mortality in the Orenburg Region have been analyzed over many years. The analysis revealed a significant rise in the incidence of thyroid malignancies with high death rates among the subjects, first registered and died within a year after their diagnosis, in the central geographical zone as compared with the western and eastern ones. There was evidence for rather high morbidity rates among the region's women, with their tendency being noted for an increase.
