[The diagnostic and clinical aspects of postoperative dysphonias following operations on the thyroid].

Postoperative dysphonia is not rare and in some cases life-treating complication in the thyroid surgery. Its emerge, autonomous, or attended with dysphagia and dyspnea is an early symptom for intraoperative lesion of n. laryngeus recurrens. The investigation is carried out over 21 patients with postoperative dysphonias, operated for euthyroid or hyperthyroid strumas and followed-up for a period of 3-10 months. Analysis of the results indicated that the main reason for postoperative dysphonias in thyroid surgery is the lesion of n. laryngeus recurrens. Along with this one is impressed by the fact that in 30% of the cases dysphonic complaints may owe to nonsurgical reasons.

[The surgical treatment of malignant tumors of the adrenal glands].

Thirty patients presenting malignant adrenal tumors of which 19 women aged 3-70 years, and eleven men with ages ranging from 5 to 70 years, are operated in the clinic of endocrine surgery over the period 1965 through 1992. In 16 cases the neoplasm is located on the right side, and in thirteen--on the left side. In 26 patients it is a matter of primary tumor, and in four--metastasis. Ten patients present the clinical picture of corticosteroma, three--pheochromocytoma, and four--corticoandrosteroma. The neoplastic mass extirpated weighs from 69 to 2050 g, necessitating the performing of nephrectomy in six instances, and splenectomy--in two. The operative technique used, intra- and postoperative complications, and the early and late postoperative survival in the series reviewed are analyzed.

[The surgical treatment of hyperthyroid goiters--the current approach and the trends].

Proceeding from the analysis of 848 patients with hyperthyroid goiter, including all three nosological entities--Graves' disease (538), toxic adenoma of the thyroid (126), and struma basedowificata nodosa (184)--operated in the clinic of endocrine surgery over a five-year period, some modern trends in the therapeutic approach are discussed, preoperative preparation of the patients and resection scope, in particular. It is recommended to discard preparation with the classical Lugol's solution in mild and medium severe forms of Graves' disease, routinely used in the clinic over the past few years, and operate after administration of 1-2 tablets Metizole which shortens preoperative hospitalization, and secures postoperative period free of hyperthyroid complications.

[Thoracophrenotomy in adrenal surgery].

The approaches to the adrenal gland may generally be classified into three groups abdominal, lumbar and thoracic. Thoracophrenotomy is one of them, which is used in the surgical treatment of diseases of the adrenal gland. The approach has a series of advantages over the other conventionally used ones; this is confirmed by the good results obtained with its application in 21 operated patients.
