SummaryThe difference between the«toxic adenoma»and the classic hyperthyroidism may be based on a less pronounced symptomatology and the absence of exophtalmos. The autonomous character of the toxic adenoma can be confirmed merely by routine scanning followed by two dynamic tests, the suppression test, using tri-iodothyronin, and the stimulation test using thyreostimulin : moreover these tests allow to differentiate between the adenoma and the other forms of nodular hyperplasia. The treatment of choice is the surgical excision limited to the toxic nodule. If contraindications exist or if the patient declines this treatment, the adenoma can be eliminated by a therapeutic dose of iodine131I. The authors treated 21 cases with a single dose of 6 to 4omC corresponding to a mean energy of 25,000 rad deposited within the nodule. The signs of toxicosis disappeared in all patients, although the adenoma treated in this manner could maintain his function or not.

摘要:

SummaryCertain forms of euthyroid goitre may be considered for treatment with radioactive iodine, especially when surgery is contraindicated because of deterioration of general condition or of to great extension of the goitre. Referring to the results of Horstet al.2the authors treated 20 similar cases with radioactive iodine. The mean dose was 40 mC corresponding to about 12,000 rads deposited within the thyroid gland. Their results are excellent for some cases and adequate for the others, with the exception of one case, evolving to a condition of hypofunction. The symptoms of compression disappeared in every patient.

摘要:

SummarySuccessful advances in pediatric surgery rely essentially on the constant control of homeostasis in the patient. To determine the ionogram, the most frequently needed value, ultrachemical methods have been used which avoid difficult venous puncture in the child. Blood samples can be repeatedly drawn by simple finger puncture even on premature babies.Statistical analysis of the results has demonstrated the validity of these methods and has shown the stability of osmotic and ionic requirements during growth.
