The aim of the study. The study was intended to be a retrospective analysis of clinical data concerning patients operated on for autoimmune goitre in the period 1998-2008, in the 1st Department of General and Transplant Surgery of the Medical University in Lublin.Material and methods. 1157 patients were operated on for various goitre forms. This group included 134 patients with Graves' and Hashimoto's disease associated goitre, which accounted for 11% of all goitre patients undergoing the surgery. Major indications to surgical treatment of the Graves' disease included progressive exophthalmos, goitre with compression symptoms, hoarseness, and uncertain biopsy diagnoses. As regards Hashimoto's disease, goitre with compression symptoms or with tumour-like changes, and ambiguous biopsy diagnoses were the factors qualifying the patient for surgical treatment. Statistical analysis was conducted using STATISTICA 6.0 PL software, the chi2 test was performed, and the statistical significance was established at p<0.005.Results. Graves' disease associated goitre was operated on in 72 patients, including 53 cases (39.5%) where infiltrative ophthalmopathy was also observed. Hashimoto's disease associated goitre was operated on in 62 patients. Early paralysis of the recurrent laryngeal nerve occurred in 10 (13.9%) patients operated on for Graves' disease, and in 5 (8.1%) patients operated on for Hashimoto's disease. As regards patients operated on for non-autoimmune goitre, early paralysis of the recurrent laryngeal nerve was observed in 29 (3%) cases. Post-surgical tetany was observed in 11.1% of Graves' disease patients, and in 8% of Hashimoto's disease patients. Finally, temporary post-surgical tetany was found in 2% of patients with non-autoimmune goitre.Conclusions. The type of goitre being operated on has a significant impact on the incidence of early post-surgical complications. In general, the incidence of early post-surgical complications is higher in the case of patients operated on for autoimmune-type goitre, compared with patients with non-autoimmune goitre. Yet this method is both safe and efficient. Total thyroid removal should be the treatment applied in the case of progressive orbitopathy associated with Graves' disease.

The major problem of total parenteral treatment consists in the balancing of the source and dose of the nutritional mixture, so as to not deepen malnutrition with a positive impact on the patients’ organism. The aim of the study was to evaluate selected factors that induce hepato-billiary complications in patients treated by means of parenteral nutrition at home. Material and methods. The retrospective study comprised 70 patients with biochemistry performed every three months. Considering statistical analysis patients were allocated to four groups, depending on the period of treatment. Group A analysis results were based on the activity of aminotransferases, group B on the activity of bilirubin. Both groups A and B were additionally divided into group I where we assigned normal values of control lab results, and group II with improper results after treatment. Results. Differences between groups Ia vs IIa were presented on the basis of the daily supply of glucose: mean- 2.52 vs 3.49 g/kg (p=0.000003), glucose/lipids ratio: mean- 3.76 vs 4.90 g/kg (p=0.0001), daily non-protein energy: mean- 16.73 vs 21.06 kcal/kg (p=0.0001). Differences between groups Ib vs IIb were presented on the basis of the daily supply of glucose: mean- 2.76 vs 3.46 g/kg (p=0.0007), glucose/lipids ratio: mean- 3.98 vs 5.13 g/kg (p=0.01), daily non-protein energy: mean-17.96 vs 20.36 kcal/kg (p=0.04). Based on the above-mentioned analysis the main goal in the prevention of hepatic complications should lead to the reduction of the dose of glucose. Increased glucose supply leads to increased number of hepato-billiary complications. Conclusions. Based on obtained results we were able to conclude that in case of liver complications associated with parenteral nutrition, proper management consists in the modification of nutritional mixtures (reduction in the daily glucose supply and change in the proportions of extra-protein energy). Such management has the greatest clinical effect. When determining the composition of the nutritional mixture one should adjust the glucose supply, so as to offset both sources of extra-protein energy
