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.

Unilateral Toxic Multicystic Goiter
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1983To the Editor. —I was distressed to read the case report by Kern and Robbins that was published in the AprilArchives(1983;143:834-835). The case is interesting, but its management needs to be questioned. In the first place, the patient's thyroid studies were performed while she was receiving 0.1 mg/day of levothyroxine sodium.

PROPYLTHIOURACIL IN THE TREATMENT OF TOXIC GOITER
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1948THIS report, an extension of one previously made (1), deals with the use of propylthiouracil in 95 patients with toxic goiter during a period of twenty-one months. The group includes 67 patients with toxic nodular goiter (21 males and 46 females), and 28 with toxic diffuse goiter (8 males and 20 females). The average age of the former was 51 years with

Toxic nodular goiter. Toxic adenoma and toxic multinodular goiter.
Endocrinology and metabolism clinics of North America, 1998Solitary toxic adenoma and toxic multinodular goiter are very common forms of thyrotoxicosis around the world. Advances in molecular biology and genetics have led to new insights into the pathogenesis of these disorders. Current theories on autonomy in the thyroid are discussed in this article.

Treatment of Toxic Diffuse Goiter
Postgraduate Medicine, 1969Surgery still has a role in treatment of Graves' disease, but it is now minor. The concern about radioiodine's potential danger is unsupported by the data coming out of the large studies. The proportion of patients who become hypothyroid is substantially reduced by a modification of the standard plan of radioiodine therapy.

We report a series of 70 patients with toxic multinodular goiter (TMNG) and analyze results after surgical removal.Over a 15-year period, patients underwent thyroid surgery for TMNG. The large majority, 85.5% were women and mean age was 40 years. All patients had had goiter for more than 5 years. Clinical signs of toxicity were present in all patients,

Toxic multinodular goiter in the elderly.
Journal of endocrinological investigation, 2002Toxic nodular goiter (TNG) is the most frequent cause of thyrotoxicosis in the elderly, specially in iodine deficient areas. Epidemiological studies have shown that in iodine deficient areas (Jutland) the incidence of hyperthyroidism is significantly higher with respect to areas with normal iodine intake (Iceland) and it is due to TNG.

Diffuse toxic goiter is a common disease of the thyroid gland. As organospecific autoimmune condition the disease is not infrequently combined with endocrine ophthalmopathy and in this connection a more precise preparation of the patients to surgery is found to be mandatory.

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1919
The reaction following partial thyroidectomy in very toxic cases of hyperthyroidism is well known. The use of various surgical and nonsurgical methods of reducing thyroid activity as a preliminary to thyroidectomy is universal. Various methods of preventing the psychic and operative traumatism inflicted by the operation itself are also in use.
