Abstract: Relation between radioactive impact and thyroid pathology was investigated among the Chernobyl NPPdisaster fighters living within the Ozyorsk area. It was revealed that the prevalence of all thyroid illnesseswithin the group of Ozyorsk residents, who was subjected to the higher radiation risk due to the post-accidental activities in the Chernobyl NPP, did not differ from that one among the population not subjected toany man-induced radiation impact. Among male fighters there were no differences noted for any nosologicillness form. At the same time among females a significant excess of nodular goiter is revealed comparedwith the control group (OP =1.5 at 95% confidence limit 1.0-2.3). This difference is conditioned by thesub-group of females subjected in the childhood to the radiation impact of the body burden radionuclides,particularly 131I due to residence in the area of Mayak PA influence. It is demonstrated that the prevalenceof thyroid pathology is significantly related to the non-radiation risk factors: sex (2.5 times higher forfemales than for males) and age (1.6 times higher for persons after 60 years old), which complys that is incompliance with published data.

Abstract: The authors describe validity of the principles of the existing iodine prophylaxis in this country, levels of intervention and adopted doses of protective preparations from the point of view of modern knowledge. They state that possibility of cancer diseases progress may be reduced or even totally prevented using iodine pro-phylaxis, and to the larger extent using it in combination with other protective measures; the main principle of iodine prophylaxis must be an achievement of a ma-ximum effect using minimum doses of potassium iodide for each age cohort.

Abstract: Purpose: To elaborate comparative morphological analysis of radiogenic and sporadic papillary thyroid carcinoma in children and adolescents bom before and after Chernobyl accident and living in the radionuclide contaminated regions of the Russian Federation. Material and methods: Histological sections of papillary carcinoma and medical records from I8O children (under 15 years old) and adolescents (from 15 to 19 years) living in Bryansk, Kaluga, Oryol and Tula regions of Russia have been examined. The first group of radiogenic cancer cases includes 130 patients whose thyroid might be exposed after the accident. The second group of sporadic tumors includes 50 patients bom since the end of January 19S7 and whose thyroid exposure to radioiodine becomes negligible. A comparison between two groups via prevalence of different histological types of papillary carcinoma and other morphological features of tumor growth has been performed. Results;The male/female ratio in the first group is 1/1.5 comparing to the second group where it is 1/3.2. The average size of tumors in the first group is higher than that in the second one (14.6+1.0 mm vs. 11.4+0.8 mm), but difference is not quite significant (p-0.06). The differences between higher extent of tumor stromal fibrosis (52.3 %) and extent of cxtrathyroid invasion (23.8 %) of tumors in the first group comparing to the second group (28.0 % and 8.0 % respectively) are statistically significant (p<0.01 and р=0.02 respectively). No differences ‘between two groups have been revealed in the prevalence of various histological types of papillary carcinoma. Conclusion: Radiogenic and sporadic papillary carcinomas have no specific types of histological architecture (histological variants). Twо groups differ from each other by the male/female ratio (females are significantly prevailing in the sporadic group), as well as by the extent of stromal fibrotic response and extent of extrathyroid invasive growth that could be revealed more often in the group of radiogenic papillary thyroid carcinomas.
