Introduction: Intraoperative identification of neck lesions in patients who have undergone previous neck surgery is particularly difficult, because of operative scarring and distorted anatomy. Radioguided occult lesion localisation (ROLL) involves the preoperative intratumoral ultrasound-guided injection of a radioactive tracer. In the present study, we investigated the efficacy of roll in two patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) who underwent previous neck exploration...

Background: Thyroid hormones modulate the lipoprotein and glucose metabolisms. In hyperthyroidism, insulin resistance is a frequent finding.Aim: To assess interrelationships between thyroid function, autoimmunity, lipid profile, glucose metabolism and other cardiovascular risk factors in patients with Graves disease.Methods: We recorded free T3 (FT3), free T4 (FT4), TSH, TSH receptor antibodies (TRAB), parameters of the lipid...
