| Popis: |
The different surgical options for the treatment of non toxic nodular goiter led the Authors to study the residual thyroid function following conservative surgery (subtotal thyroidectomy, lobectomy and enucleation). Follow-up showed an overall recurrence rate of 49%, with a higher rate after lobectomy and enucleation than after subtotal thyroidectomy. On the other hand, subclinical hypothyroidism was higher in patients who underwent subtotal thyroidectomy. No significative correlation was found between high plasmatic levels of TSH and recurrences. |
