THE possibility that the mechanical action of neck muscles can, in rare cases, sever a projecting portion of the thyroid gland has been recognized for over fifty years.1 This process is most likely to occur in a nodular colloid goiter. Cases of colloid nodules separate from the thyroid gland were excluded from several series describing the malignant so-

Dakar medical, 2009
To date no study in our country was specifically dedicated on toxic nodular goiter. They were just mentioned in generally studies about hyperthyroidism.The authors report a retrospective series of 62 cases of toxic nodular goitre collected between 1979 and 1999 at the internal medical clinic of Dakar teaching hospital.

The American Journal of Surgery, 1955
Abstract The treatment of choice for congenital goiter causing respiratory obstruction is thyroidectomy. This operation should be as radical in children as in adults. X-ray therapy to the thymus gland may be hazardous and internal irradiation with radioactive iodine is accompanied by a striking increase in the incidence of Hashimoto's thyroiditis ...

Postgraduate Medicine, 1966
Microscopic examination following surgical excision is the only reliable way to determine whether thyroid nodules unassociated with thyroiditis are benign or malignant. The distinction cannot be made by scintiscanning, although this technic is valuable for other reasons.

Nodular Goiter and Thyroid Cancer
New England Journal of Medicine, 1958THE practice of removing a nodule or multiple nodules from the thyroid gland for the prevention of cancer has been challenged in recent years. The justification for this procedure arose from the concept, held for many years, that a large proportion of thyroid cancers arose from a pre-existing adenoma or from multiple nodular goiters. Regardless of this

Nontoxic Goiter - Diffuse or Nodular
Medical Clinics of North America, 1975Nontoxic goiters are very common. A single hyperfunctioning nodule is never malignant. Treatment is required only if the patient is hyperthyroid. Most single hypofunctioning thyroid nodules are cool and most are benign; however, it is important to rule out malignancy.

Nodular Goiter and Thyroid Cancer
New England Journal of Medicine, 1948IN THE therapeutic attack on malignant tumors in general, the accumulated experience of generations has established as virtually axiomatic certain well defined principles. The first is the folly of attempting to arrive at a diagnosis by observation of the continued growth of a tumor or area of nodularity until its malignant nature is clear and ...

The Nontoxic Nodular Hyperplastic Goiter
New England Journal of Medicine, 1955RECENT studies on sporadic goitrous cretinism1 2 3 4 5 have called attention to the interesting paradox of hypothyroidism associated with a hyperplastic nodular goiter. These studies have demonstrated an intrinsic defect within the thyroid gland in its synthesis of thyroid hormone that can occur at different stages, either in the binding of iodine to ...

A 55-year-old man had undergone bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy due to multinodular goiter 30 years ago, and histopathological examination had revealed benign nodular goiter. The patient had been suffering from swelling in the neck and dyspnea for the last 15 years, and the symptoms got worsened by the time.

THE TREATMENT OF NODULAR GOITER
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1952THE clinical course of nodular goiter is varied. The thyroid nodule may remain unchanged for long periods of time; it may grow and exert pressure on neighboring structures; it may degenerate or be the site of hemorrhage; it may be neoplastic and infiltrate adjacent tissues or metastasize; rarely it may hyperfunction within itself, or, more commonly, be
