Abstract

Results of surgical treatment and evaluation of the quality of life of 138 patients showed that
subtotal resection of the thyroid gland is effective to achieve optimal thyroid homeostasis. The 49.2 %
of patients has the euthyroid state, at 21.7 % notes postoperative subclinical hypothyroidism does
not require medical correction. The volume of the thyroid residue thus should be minimal, indicating
the need for surgery by an experienced surgeon in a specialized surgical department. The authors
suppose that the implementation of thyroidectomy for diffuse toxic goiter does not always correspond
to the basic principle of operation of the endocrine organs, according to which the surgery should be
surgically radical and endocrine gentle.
