RESUMO
Modern diagnosis and therapy of benign thyroid diseases Abstract. Benign thyroid diseases continue to be widespread endocrine disorders. Early recognition of their symptoms and exact diagnosis are the prerequisite of targeted therapy and minimal impairment of the patient's well-being. Drug treatment, radioiodine therapy, thermal ablation procedures and surgery have been shown to be successful treatment options. As guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of patients continue to evolve, an interdisciplinary approach ensures optimal diagnosis and management on every step in the care for these patients. We present three clinical scenarios for benign thyroid disease: the symptomatic goitre, the painful thyroid and the thyroid with hyperthyroidism.
