Токсический узловой зоб (ТУЗ) — редкое заболевание, при котором причиной гипертиреоза является наличие узла или узлов, автономно секретирующих гормоны щитовидной железы. У детей и подростков данное состояние встречается крайне редко — в 5–7,5% всех случаев узлового зоба. Терапия ТУЗ направлена на купирование симптомов гипертиреоза с учетом злокачественного потенциала узлового образования. В доступной литературе отсутствуют данные о клиническом течении, сравнительных результатах цитологических и гистологических данных пациентов с ТУЗ, дебютировавшим в детском возрасте.ЦЕЛЬ. Анализ особенностей клинического течения, сравнение результатов цитологического и гистологического исследований ТУЗ у детей и подростков.МАТЕРИАЛЫ И МЕТОДЫ. Ретроспективное одноцентровое исследование 21 пациента с одноузловым токсическим зобом, госпитализированных в ФГБУ «НМИЦ эндокринологии» Минздрава России в период с января 2016 г. по декабрь 2019 г.РЕЗУЛЬТАТЫ. Средний возраст на момент обследования составлял 13,9 года. У 13 пациентов (65%) отмечался манифестный тиреотоксикоз, у 7 (35%) — субклинический гипертиреоз. Больше половины детей — 57,1% (n=12) не получали тиреостатической терапии. Цитологическая картина у 11 пациентов (61,1%) соответствовала доброкачественным изменениям (узловой коллоидный зоб или аденоматозный зоб) — Bethesda II, у 4 пациентов — фолликулярной опухоли — Bethesda IV, у 4 детей исследование оказалось неинформативным. 19 пациентам (90,5%) было проведено хирургическое лечение (гемитиреоидэктомия). Фолликулярная аденома по результатам гистологического исследования встречалась у 44,4% детей с ТУЗ при доброкачественных результатах тонкоигольной аспирационной биопсии (Bethesda II) и в 50% — при выявлении фолликулярной неоплазии (Bethesda IV).ЗАКЛЮЧЕНИЕ. Впервые в Российской Федерации проведен сравнительный анализ характеристик цитологического и гистологического исследования у детей с ТУЗ. Показательно, что только в 10,5% (n=2) случаев соответствовали цитологические и морфологические результаты. Выбор тактики радикального лечения должен учитывать высокую частоту несовпадений гистологических и морфологических исследований.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>BACKGROUND: Toxic nodular goiter (TNG) is a rare disease in which the cause of hyperthyroidism is the presence of a node or nodes that autonomously secrete thyroid hormones. With children and adolescents this condition is extremely rare — in 5–7.5% of all cases of nodular goiter. Therapy of toxic nodular goiter is aimed at relieving the symptoms of hyperthyroidism taking into account the malignant potential of the nodular formation. In the available literature, there are no data on the clinical course, comparative results of cytological and histological data in patients with toxic nodular goiter, which debuted in their childhood.AIM: Analysis of the features of the clinical course, comparison of the results of cytological and histological studies of toxic nodular goiter in children and adolescents.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective, single-center study of 21 patients with single-nodular toxic goiter, hospitalized at the Endocrinology Research Centre in the period from January 2016 to December 2019.RESULTS: The mean age at the time of the survey was 13.9 years. Thirteen patients (65%) had manifest thyrotoxicosis, and seven (35%) had subclinical hyperthyroidism. More than half of children — 57.1% (n = 12) did not receive thyreostatic therapy. The cytological picture in 11 patients (61.1%) corresponded to benign changes (nodular colloid goiter or adenomatous goiter) — Bethesda II, in 4 patients — follicular tumor — Bethesda IV, in 4 children the study was not informative. 19 patients (90.5%) underwent surgical treatment (hemithyroidectomy). According to the results of histological examination, follicular adenoma was found in 44.4% of children with nodular toxic goiter with benign results of TAB (Bethesda II) and was found in 50% with revealing follicular neoplasia (Bethesda IV).CONCLUSION: For the first time in the Russian Federation was carried out a comparative analysis of the characteristics of cytological and histological studies in children with toxic nodular goiter. It is significant that only in 10.5% (n=2) cytological and morphological results were consistent. The choice of radical treatment tactics should take into account the high frequency of mismatches between histological and morphological studies.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>токсический узловой зоб</kwd><kwd>гипертиреоз</kwd><kwd>функциональная автономия</kwd><kwd>щитовидная железа</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>toxic nodular goiter</kwd><kwd>hyperthyroidism</kwd><kwd>functional autonomy</kwd><kwd>thyroid gland</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><ref id="cit1"><mixed-citation publication-type="commun" publication-format="web"><name><surname>Egorycheva</surname> <given-names>E.K.</given-names></name> <article-title>Retseptor tireotropnogo gormona gipofiza pri funktsional'noi avtonomii shchitovidnoi zhelezy</article-title>: <source>Diss. … kand. med. nauk.</source> — M.; <year>2007</year>.</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="cit2"><element-citation><name><surname>Miller</surname> <given-names>J.
