[The scintigraphic image of the thyroid gland in large cell eosinophilic tumors--Hürthle cell adenoma and Langhans struma].

Thirteen patients (12 women and 1 man), chiefly aged from 40 to 60 years and suffering from Langhans struma and Hurthle-cell adenoma were examined and operated on. Scintigraphic study of the thyroid gland was conducted in 6 patients with histologically proved Hurthle-cell adenoma; "warm" nodes were revealed in 3 and "cold" nodes also in 3 cases. Three scintigraphic images with a "cold" node and 1--with a "warm" node were obtained in the patients with Langhans struma. In one case with a "hot" node and in one case with a "warm" node of the Hurthle group there was a clinical picture of moderately severe thyrotoxicosis. The differences in the thyroscintigraphic pictures in eosinophilic tumours pointed to the necessity of additional clinical and laboratory investigations.
