| description | The aim of this study was to examine how wartime events affected the occurrence of cancer of the thyroid gland. This is a retrospective trial, which included a ten-year period of research. A five-year period included a period after the war, the period from 1st January 1998th to 31st December 2002th and the second period of the prewar period, the period from 1st January 1987th until 31st December 1991 st year. The study used data archived histopathological analysis of tissue samples of the thyroid gland of the Institute of Pathological Anatomy, Medical Faculty in Sarajevo. This study showed that in the postwar period there was an increase in morbidity from cancer of the thyroid gland in relation to the pre-war period. After the war there was a change in morbidity compared to the histopathologic type of thyroid cancer. In the prewar period, the most common histopathologic type of cancer is follicular thyroid carcinoma, while in the postwar period papillary carcinoma of the most common. Thyroid cancers in the postwar period more often verified in the older age groups compared to pre-war period. Women are more often suffered from thyroid cancer compared to men in both periods analyzed, but there is an evident increase in men suffering from thyroid cancer in post-war period compared to pre-war period. Survey results indicate a possible role of war to change the morbidity of the thyroid gland carcinoma. |
