Abstract:
629 autopsies were studied to elucidate nosological structure of thyroid nodular lesions. The material was epidemiologically representative in relation to older Moscow population. Colloid stroma with proliferation, atrophic and scarred alteration (total 80.3% cases) prevailed among nodular lesions more than 1 cm in diameter followed by adenomas (11.6%), carcinoma (5.8%) and autoimmune thyroiditis (2.3%). It is shown that alcoholic disease is associated with thyroid atrophy and low risk of goiter alteration.

01:23The Thyroid Gland
The thyroid gland is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck and covers the anterior surface of the trachea. The gland has two lateral lobes connected by a thin tissue mass called the isthmus. Internally, each lobe comprises many small spherical structures known as thyroid follicles, surrounded by a network of blood vessels.
The follicles have a central cavity lined by simple cuboidal to squamous epithelial cells called follicular cells. These cells produce the glycoprotein...

01:27Goiter
Goiter refers to an abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland that may appear as a diffuse goiter (uniform enlargement) or nodular (single or multiple nodules). Functionally, it is classified as nontoxic (normal/low hormone levels) or toxic (excess hormone production).PathophysiologyDiffuse thyroid enlargement typically results from prolonged stimulation by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) or TSH-like agents, commonly seen in hypothyroidism or iodine deficiency. In contrast, in hyperthyroid...
