“…From a total of 108 (0.8%) children with suspicious nodules, 84 had thyroid carcinoma, most (96%) were PTC (Yamashita & Takamura 2015). Although a not significant increase in the prevalence of thyroid cancer has been reported after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident (Iwaku et al 2014), a sharp increase in the incidence of thyroid cancer was observed 4-5 years after the Chernobyl accident, and, therefore, it was preceded by a latency phase. Only a long-term follow-up will clarify whether a third peak of thyroid cancer might occur after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident.…”

“…Iwaku et al [20] reported on ultrasound findings of children who were exposed to the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. In this study, the incidence of an intrathyroidal ectopic thymus was 4.2%, and the incidence rate decreased with age, similar to the tendency reported by Hayashida et al [21].…”

“…Заинтере совавшись этой публикацией, резюмирую результаты еще ряда крупных эпидемиоло-гических исследований у детей, которые были иници-ированы в Японии после трагедии на Фукусиме в 2011 г. [16][17][18]. Во-первых, дается четкое ультразву-ковое понятие тиреоидного узла -"солидное или со-лидное с кистозным компонентом образование ≥5,1 мм в диаметре".…”

“…Авторы делают вывод об очень низкой частоте РЩЖ в детской популяции. В целом, распространенность клинически значимых узлов и кист у детей по результатам УЗИ составляет от 0,2% в младшей возрастной группе до 2% среди подростков, а эктопия тимуса встречается в обратной возрастной пропорции -от 5,2 до 0,2% [15][16][17][18].…”
