Intrapericardial goiter cases are only a few in the literature. We present a 53-year-old woman who was operated for 8-cm anterior mediastinal mass located completely intrapericardial and histopathological examination revealed an ectopic goiter. It may be difficult to distinguish between mediastinal masses within or outside the pericardium. Thoracoscopy

AbstractThe management of a substernal goiter is a problem which has challenged surgeons since its first description in 1749. While the overall incidence in the United States has decreased with the routine use of iodized salt, the development of large multinodular substernal goiters in the rest of the world is still common.

ENDEMIC GOITER remains one of the most widespread nutritional diseases in the world today. The major cause is iodine deficiency. The World Health Organization reports a high incidence of goiter in Thailand (where a program of iodine supplementation was instituted), in the mountains of Western Pakistan, Lebanon, Basutoland, and Kenya.

CHILDREN with various types of goiter presently constitute approximately 16 per cent of the new admissions for primary endocrine disease seen in the Adolescent Endocrine Clinic at the Massachusetts General Hospital. Hence, it is evident that these conditions are by no means uncommon. In all fairness to the non-endocrinologist, however, the frequency of

Enlargement of the thyroid gland during adolescence should be considered a pathologic rather than physiologic process. With diffuse enlargement in an asymptomatic patient, thyroid function tests and thyroid antibodies usually are the only tests needed to define the diagnosis of euthyroid autoimmune thyroiditis.

Theodor Kocher hat, basierend auf seinem damaligen Verständnis der Goiterogenesis, bis weit über die Landesgrenzen hinaus die chirurgische Strategie der Strumachirurgie geprägt. Dank seiner (präventiven) Weitsicht ist die Schweiz heute kein Jodmangelgebiet mehr, sondern nur ein reines Strumaendemiegebiet, welches aber eine hohe Inzidenz von ...

Exophthalmic goiter in pregnancy is rare, owing to the restraining influence the disease exerts on conception. Halliday-Croom1reports only one case in 15,000 dispensary patients, while in his private practice he found twelve cases, causing him to believe that this complication is more prevalent among the upper classes.

MNG is a common clinical problem. Though most goiters are benign and asymptomatic, they may cause concern when they create compressive symptoms, develop autonomous functioning nodules, or form suspicious nodules. Diagnostic evaluation should include clinical evaluation, laboratory tests including TSH, and consideration of additional evaluation and ...

Retrotracheal extension of a goiter, though rare usually causes respiratory compromise, dysphagia or vascular obstruction. We have described an asymptomatic patient with a large retrotracheal goiter resected via a collar incision.
