Abstract
The technique for thyroid lymphangiography and clinical use is described. Indications and the findings in 20 cases studied with this method and the correlation with thyroid scan as well as histological findings are present. This technique has a very low morbidity and shows a correlation of 70% with the surgical findings as opposed to 40% for the thyroid scan. The findings of the authors are also discussed and a review of the literature is made.
