[Thyroid autonomous nodule. Surgical treatment and postoperative outcome, retrospective study of 102 cases (author's transl)].

Follow-up of 102 patients operated upon for autonomous thyroid nodules is reported. Retrospective study of operative findings and aftermath of surgery clearly demonstrates that the patho-physiological concept of autonomous nodule does not snugly fit practical problems experienced with the management of such patients. The autonomous nodule can be a malignancy. Ipsilateral thyroid lobectomy seems more suitable than nodulectomy. Gross appearance of the thyroid remnant makes sometimes post-operative hormonotherapy unexpectedly advisable. From a theoretical point of view, post-operative thyroid scan, TSH assay and TRH test are mandatory, to assess recovery.

[Early postoperative intestinal obstructions. Contribution of radiography to diagnosis of the type and to the indication for reoperation (experience in 84 cases)].

The authors report 84 cases of post-operative intestinal obstruction and demonstrate the value of straight XRays and barium meal in the diagnosis of the variety of early post-operative obstruction and the indications for operation. In 74 cases out of 82, a precise diagnosis of the mechanical or paralytic nature of the obstruction was made and the operation always carried out under best possible conditions.
