“…The first-round survey showed that cysts and nodules were found in approximately half and 1.3% of examinees, respectively. Since the prevalence of thyroid nodules and cysts in Japanese children has not been clarified, 36 children in three prefectures (Aomori, Yamanashi, and Nagasaki Prefectures) were examined to investigate the frequency of thyroid nodular lesions in the general population. 37 These examinations were performed using the same ultrasound procedures as those used in the Fukushima Health Management Survey.…”

“…The prevalence of latent thyroid cancer is high in Japanese adults, and has been reported as 10-20% or more [22,23]. In addition, previous reports have indicated that sonographic examination of the thyroid gland was able to detect thyroid cancer in 0.1-1.5% of subjects in the adult general population [24]. However, there have been few reports on the prevalence of thyroid cancers in children.…”

“…However, there have been few reports on the prevalence of thyroid cancers in children. Therefore, in order to obtain control data, ultrasound and cytological examinations were performed on 4,365 asymptomatic children under the age 18 years living in Aomori, Yamanashi and Nagasaki Prefectures in Japan with the same protocol [24,25]. These prefectures are located far from Fukushima Prefecture.…”

“…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].…”
