✦ Synopsis
This is a report on two 10-year-old girls with a decompensated autonomous adenoma of the thyroid gland. Both girls were clinically euthyroid. In one girl there was no response of the thyrotropic cells of the anterior pituitary lobe to TRH stimulation for a short time during the first postoperative weeks. The diagnostic and therapeutic procedure in the case of nodular transformations in the thyroid area is discussed.
