Multinodular goiter in children is uncommon. Surgery is standard treatment, with most patients remaining euthyroid, though some develop hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism post-operation.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric endocrinology
  • Thyroid disease management

Context:

  • Multinodular goiter (MNG) is a rare condition in pediatric populations.
  • Understanding the clinical presentation and outcomes of MNG in children is crucial for effective management.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the clinical characteristics, surgical outcomes, and long-term follow-up of pediatric patients with multinodular goiter.

Summary:

  • This study reviewed 17 pediatric patients with multinodular goiter who underwent surgery.
  • The majority of patients were euthyroid post-operatively.
  • Three patients had congenital hypothyroidism, and two developed hyperthyroidism, necessitating bilateral thyroidectomy in one case, either pre- or post-operatively.

Impact:

  • Provides insights into the rare pediatric multinodular goiter, aiding in diagnosis and treatment strategies.
