Study of 297 patients with preparative methods of nontoxic nodular goiter and cytological diagnose "adenomatosis" with the use of artificial neural network (ANN) were analyzed. Malignant pathology could be supposed with 95.5% accuracy when we applied experience of trained ANN. Clinical, instrumental and cytologic criteria, which make possible to prognosticate degree of malignant process in thyroid gland parenchyma, were determined. Painless elastic nodules with sonographically iso- o hyperechogenic structure, with clear outline and cytologically determined adenomatosis in combination with colloid can be interpreted as benign lesion of thyroid gland.

There exist three principal treatment modalities employed in the management of hyperthyroidism attributable to excessive hormone secretion by the thyroid gland: antithyroid pharmacotherapy, surgical intervention, and radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy. Surgical intervention is typically indicated for markedly enlarged thyroid glands that exert pressure on the trachea. The objective of this investigation was to ascertain the influence of RAI on thyroid volume and tracheal diameter.

Background: The coexistence of primary glomerulonephritis and autoimmune thyroid disease has not been investigated.
Objective: This study aimed to assess thyroid morphology using sonography, determine the prevalence of autoimmune thyroid disorders, and evaluate thyroid function status in patients diagnosed with primary glomerulonephritis.
Materials And Methods: This single-center cross-sectional and observational study included 58 consecutive patients with primary glomerulonephritis and 58 healthy controls (HC).
Dynamic carotid compression arising from a change in patient position is a rare complication of goitre, with the potential for cerebral ischaemia and infarction. In this report, a 37-year-old woman presented with a multi-nodular goitre with clinical features concerning for transient cerebral ischaemia. The anaesthetic management and neurological monitoring used to mitigate the risk of cerebral ischaemia during thyroidectomy is described and the literature surrounding this rare complication is explored.

Gaucher disease (GD), the most common ultra-rare metabolic disorder, results from lipid accumulation. Systemic inflammation, cellular stress, and metabolic dysfunction may influence endocrine function, including the thyroid. This study evaluated thyroid function and morphology in 60 GD patients, alongside carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
