There was summarized the experience of treatment of the thyroid gland cancer, invading trachea (larynx) and other neighboring structures of the neck in 42 patients, whose state was estimated as severe one and neoplastic process--as nonoperable. Optimal surgical methods were applied depending on clinical signs of thyroidal carcinoma. In 36 patients the palliative resection of thyroid gland (in 6--with tracheostomy addition) was done, in 6--intervention was restricted by tracheostomy formation. The method of tracheostomy formation in cases of massive spreading of tumor along trachea is adduced.
