Abstract

We carried out a comparative analysis of the dynamics of primary and general thyroid pathology incidence in population of Gomel region and the Republic of Belarus for the period of 1992-2008. A higher level of incidence registered in Gomel region in 1992 was practically comparable with the average level for the whole Republic in 2008.
