Popis: A comparative analysis of 2419 case histories of patients operated on for different thyroid diseases, has shown that the frequency of adenocarcinomas in lymphadenoid goiter is almost like in nodular and multinodular goiter however they are detected usually in the form of microfoci. Thyroid cancer in patients with lymphadenoid goiter combined with nodular goiter and/or adenoma is detected twice as more frequently than in patients with (multi)nodular goiter. Routine methods of investigation do not permit preoperative detection of malignancy against a background of lymphadenoid goiter.
