[Nodular goiter from the oncologic viewpoint].

Experience in the diagnosis and treatment of nodular forms of thyroid carcinoma is generalized.

Aspiration biopsy was widely used in establishing the diagnosis and chromothyrolymphography during the operation. The method of operative treatment consists in extrafascial resection of the thyroid gland and subsequent substitution therapy with thyroidine or thyrotoxine.
