[The hyperfunctional thyroid nodule].

Authors report their experience of 22 years regarding 284 patients with hyperfunctional thyroidal nodules (279 operated), representing 12.4% of the 2,289 cases of thyroidal (875 hyperthyroid) diseases treated during this period. The diagnosis was established on the basis of the confrontation of the anamnestic symptomatology and of that found at the clinical examination--which confirmed the pure character of thyrotoxicosis by showing the presence of a thyroidal nodule--with the study of the global glandular function and the scintigram, completed with dynamic tests. Among the typical clinical and scintigraphic, usually severe, forms (with cardiothyreosis) may be distinguished asymptomatic or atypical forms (with dissociated or intermittent manifestations). The treatment of the toxic thyroidal adenoma is surgical, except some contraindications of a general order. The surgical treatment is aimed at achieving the permanent cure of the disease, without sequelae or functional and/or morphological relapses. The subtotal lobectomy (210 cases) is preferred as an exeresis procedure to the enucleoresection (45 cases). In most operated cases (93%) the immediate clinical and biological results were favourable.

[Hyperthyroidism in the elderly. The clinical forms. The incidence of signs and symptoms. The evolutionary features].

The last 15 years, 1939 patients suffering from different clinical forms of hyperthyroidism were hospitalised in the Clinic of Endocrinology of Iaşi. The frequency of the disease increases with age, especially for the toxic nodular goitre. In older patients we have noted a non-typical clinical course of the disease, with prevailing cardiovascular signs and weight loss. The clinical course is also particular especially because of the associated pathology. We have made some theoretical considerations concerning the possible explanations of these phenomena.

[The "cold" thyroid nodule].

The main problem posed by an (apparent) solitary thyroid nodule is cancer identification, present in about 10% of the nodules excised surgically. This percent might increase to 25-30% in the cold scintigraphic nodules. Therefore, a combination of all the methods for nodule assessment is necessary: anamnesis, physical examination, functional tests, therapeutic test with tyrosine and thyroid imaging, but mainly the intensive active exploration including puncture-biopsy with a fine needle and exeresis with extemporaneous and paraffin morphological checking. Starting from a two decades' experience of a group of endocrinologists, surgeons, anatomo-pathologists and specialists in nuclear medicine, in 2,289 thyropathies operated--of whom 1691 (poly)nodular goitres and 1,190 non-capturing nodules--the authors suggest an investigation algorithm for achieving a differentiated surgery in terms of the pre- and intraoperative morphological findings. This attitude permitted both the improvement of the surgeries of thyroid cancers and the exeresis of benign nodules under low-risk surgical conditions or avoidance of a "non-necessary" surgery.
