Nodules of more than 15 mm, unique, unilateral, of regular brink with liquid and multiple ganglia and calcification prevailed. The left lobule was the most affected one.  The diagnosis was confirmed in all patients through echography. Non- malignant histologic removed gland predominated Conclusions: the left hemithyroidectomy with isthmectomy was the most frequent resection without postoperative surgical accidents and satisfactory progress.
