Özet

OBJECTIVE: Hyperthyroidism is a group of diseases with many different etiologies and clinical manifestations. The most common causes include toxic multi-nodular goiter, Graves' disease and toxic adenoma. The prevalence of thyroid cancer developing in patients with hyperthyroidism has gradually increased in recent years. The aim of this study is to detect the incidental thyroid cancer rates in patients who have undergone a surgical operation due to hyperthyroidism, and to specify the patient groups in whom surgical treatment should come into the foreground.
