Özet

Background Autonomously functioning toxic adenomas are a common cause of hyperthyroidism. Although (131)l seems to be a good therapeutic option with little postablative hypothyroidism for these patients, only a small number of recent studies have objectively evaluated changes in nodule size by ultrasonography following radioiodine therapy.
