Thyroidectomy Versus Medical Management for Euthyroid Patients With Hashimoto Disease and Persisting Symptoms: A Randomized Trial.

Background: Hashimoto disease is a chronic autoimmune thyroiditis. Despite adequate hormone substitution, some patients have persistent symptoms that may be the result of immunologic pathophysiology.

Objective: To determine whether thyroidectomy improves symptoms in patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis who still have symptoms despite having normal thyroid gland function while receiving medical therapy.

Successful breast reconstruction using acellular dermal matrix can be recommended in healthy non-smoking patients.

Introduction: We present Scandinavia's first series of immediate alloplastic breast reconstructions with an acellular dermal matrix.

Material And Methods: Data were collected retrospectively in 76 cases of immediate breast reconstruction using an acellular dermal matrix (ADM) and an implant.

Results: A total of 59 women were reconstructed between June 2011 and January 2013.
