Abstract
There is still no common, universally recognized approach in the therapy of Graves' disease, Gravesism and simple strumas. A number of clinics — surgical, therapeutic, nervous, and physiotherapeutic — claim to play a role in the treatment of these diseases. The brilliant results of surgical treatment have sufficiently revealed the value of the surgical method, but comparatively young physiotherapy, in particular X-ray therapy, are now actively attracting the attention of specialists to resolve this issue. Thus, if, thanks to the accumulated observations, the participation of each of these clinics is undoubtedly necessary, then the share of participation and the place that belongs to each of them, despite the large number of works on this issue, is still a problem of the day. Only further accumulation of observations on clinical material can bring us closer to solving this problem. That is why it seems interesting to summarize the observations that have accumulated at the Leningrad Physiotherapeutic Institute over the past 6 years (1923-1928 will include). This development also has the advantage that it is made on polyclinic material, which, in contrast to the stationary one with prevailing severe forms, has a variety from initial to classically completed forms.
