Sažetak

Hypothyroidism is a condition of reduced production, distribution, or absence of action of thyroid hormones. Clinical diagnosis of hypothyroidism is not easily established due to the nonspecific clinical manifestations. Determination of serum TSH is the first-line test for the diagnosis of hypothyroidism. The aim of the study was to determine the presence of other endocrine disorders in patients with subclinical (TSH levels between 5 and 10 mIU/l), or clinical (TSH above 10 mIU/l) hypothyrodism. We analyzed 50 patients (35 with clinical hypothyroidism and 15 with subclinical form).

Sažetak

The thyroid gland is the largest endocrine organ with the highest frequency of disorders of all the endocrine organs. A successful treatment of both benign and malignant diseases of the thyroid is connected with adequate pre-operative evaluation, a precise operative technique and the knowledge of surgical anatomy. Complications that may occur due to the insufficient knowledge of the surgical anatomy of the thyroid and parathyroid glands permanently damage the health of the patient and cause his lifelong disability.
