The authors base their study on a retrospective evaluation of a personal series of patients and on a review of the literature on this topic. They focus their attention on surgical problems relating to the type of treatment of non-toxic multinodular goitre. On the basis of the data obtained, they underline that in this pathology total thyroidectomy is the most appropriate form of surgery and does not entail a higher morbidity in relation to more conservative resection.
