  • Title: [TSH-secretion after surgery of decompensated autonomous thyroid adenomas].
    Author: Schumann J, Schulz F.
    Journal: Med Klin; 1981 Dec 18; 76(26):738-42. PubMed ID: 6798381.
    Abstract:
    The postoperative secretion rate of TSH before and after stimulation by TRF was studied in 43 patients with hyperfunctioning thyroid adenomas. TSH secretion is reduced and not at all or insufficiently stimulated by TRF preoperatively. This condition normalizes six weeks after operation. Mainly in those patients, who needed extensive resections of thyroid parenchyma basal TSH concentration and stimulation by TRF were elevated postoperatively. Following enucleations of adenomas or small resections we do not perform a substitution therapy, but control TSH-secretion rates in yearly intervals.
