Euthyroid multinodular goiters may lead to acute respiratory failure caused by airway obstruction or laryngotracheal compression. Here, we present a case admitted to the nephrologist with multinodular goiter spontaneous hemorrhage along with respiratory failure and end-stage renal disease (ESRD), which required urgent surgical intervention.We report the case of a 63-year-old woman with ESRD who...

INTRODUCTION Thyroid gland is a rare site of clinically detectable tumor metastasis. CASE REPORT A 71-year-old woman was referred to our department for an evaluation of toxic multinodular substernal goiter. She had a history of renal clear cell carcinoma of the left kidney, which had been resected 2 years previously. US confirmed the multinodular goiter. Total thyroidectomy with neuromonitori...

Iodine-123 single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging of the thyroid was performed in two patients with multinodular goiter and swallowing difficulty to provide the functional and anatomic orientation of the goiter in relation to the airway. Transaxial slices showed the retrolaryngeal extension of the enlarged thyroid and the tracheal compression by the goiter in both patients. ...

Acute suppurative thyroiditis is an uncommon disorder, which has been associated with pre-existing thyroid disease, especially a multinodular goiter. We describe a case of a woman who presented clinically with an acute inflammatory condition of the neck. On CT examination, she had a triad of a multinodular goiter, a unilateral hypopharyngitis, and a surrounding cellulitis. We suggest that the c...

This study included 60 patients with multinodular goiter. These patients were divided i...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: the aim of this study was to create a diagnostic model using the artificial neural networks (anns) to predict malignancy in multinodular goiter patients with an indeterminate cytology. materials and methods: out of 623 patients, 411 evaluated for multinodular goiter between july 2004 and march 2010 had a fine‑needle aspiration biopsy. ...
