QUALITY OF LIFE BEFORE AND AFTER OPERATION IN PATIENTS WITH DIFFUSE TOXIC GOITER

Abstract

By the main criteria for the effectiveness of treatment of thyrotoxicosis, most researchers mean the elimination of thyrotoxicosis and the achievement of immunological remission. However, according to domestic and foreign literature in recent years, many scientists consider quality of life (QOL) to be the most reliable and sensitive criterion for assessing the results and effectiveness of therapy.
