The Effect of Oral Selenium on the Size of Thyroid Nodules in Patients with Benign Thyroid nodules: A Brief Study
Objective: The thyroid gland is susceptible to the formation of nodules. Therefore, due to the critical role of selenium in the function of the thyroid gland, the impact of this element on the size and volume of this organ and its nodules were examined. Materials and Methods: During three months, two groups consisting of 30 patients with benign thyroid nodules who were referred to Baghaeipour ...
متن کاملThe Incidence of Carcinoma in Solitary “Cold” Thyroid Nodules
Two hundred and three patients with single thyroid nodules were referred for radioactive scan of the thyroid. Solitary "cold" nodules were identified in 130 patients and 68 of these patients came to surgery. Of this group, 12 patients were found to have carcinoma. There was no obvious selection process which distinguished the 68 patients who underwent surgery from the 62 who did not. There is a...

Another 134 subjects ( 17%) were found to have thyroid nodularity, 85 of whom bad solitary cold nodules. 43 patients whith either a solitary cold nodule or a multinodular goiter with a priominent cold nodule were ope...
متن کاملPredicting malignancy in thyroid nodules: molecular advances.
Over the last several years, a clearer understanding has developed of the genetic alterations underlying thyroid carcinogenesis. This knowledge can be used to tackle 1 of the challenges facing thyroidologists: management of the indeterminate thyroid nodule. Despite the accuracy of fine-needle aspiration cytology, many patients undergo surgery to diagnose malignancy and better diagnostic tools a...
متن کاملRole of conventional ultrasonography and color flow-doppler sonography in predicting malignancy in 'cold' thyroid nodules.
The aim of the present study was to establish the usefulness of conventional thyroid ultrasonography (US) and color flow-doppler (CFD) sonography in the assessment of 'cold' thyroid nodules. One hundred and four consecutive patients with thyroid nodules who were to undergo surgery were examined by US and CFD before thyroidectomy. Conventional US evaluated the presence of a halo sign, hypoechoge...
