Abstract
The paper presents the results of surgical treatment in 120 patients living in an endemic area, who have been operated on for benign thyroid diseases. The toxic forms of goiter amounted to 85%. A long history of the disease, the enlarged thyroid, and a large number of patients with complicated forms of the disease were noted. There was a preponderance of maximum subtotal resections (with less than 1 g of the parenchyma being left) and thyroidectomies in the structure of operations. The incidence of postoperative complications was 15.8%. Transient postoperative bilateral laryngeal paresis and transient hypocalcemia were observed in 5 (4.2%) and 10 (8.3%) cases, respectively. The detected features of the course of the diseases and transient postoperative complications allow thyroidectomy and subtotal thyroid resection, with less than 1 g of the parenchyma being left, to be regarded as the methods of choice in the surgical treatment of benign diseases of the thyroid in its bilateral lesion.
