Abstract

The research is based on analysis of treatment results of 127 patients with benign thyroid neoplasm. 58 patients (45,67 %) were treated by method of interstitial laser photocoagulation; 69 patients (54,33 %) were operated by standard surgical methods. Application of interstitial laser photocoagulation resulted in two-fold decrease of pain syndrome intensity in post-surgery period and the time of patients return to activity; the rate of complications decreased 2,3 times. The analysis proved that, as compared to standard treatment, interstitial laser photocoagulation method shows a high effectiveness, clinical & social advantages in treatment of patients with benign thyroid neoplasm.
