Sažetak
Thyroid gland diseases are the most common endocrinopathies in children. Vast majority of these conditions are treated with medical therapy but in individualised cases surgery is indicated. Decision about surgical treatment is made in cooperation of pediatric endocrinologist and surgeon, treatment options depend on the nature of the disease while the extent of surgical procedure is determined by the pathological changes present in the gland. In this paper we represent the results of surgical treatment of 41 children at our department from 1991 to 2009 and current trends in surgical treatement of thyroid gland diseases
