[Influence of strumectomy on preoperative tracheal compression (author's transl)]. 1979

K Jünemann, and R Schmidt

Young persons and the groups of age past fifty years form the greatest portion of preoperative tracheal compressions caused by struma. In most cases there is no relationship between subjective complaints and objective findings. 80% of all retrosternal strumata showed a narrowing of the trachea. The age of the patients could be found to be the most important factor for restitutio ad integrum of the compression of the trachea.
