Abstract
In experiments on 44 dogs after removal of one lobe of the thyroid gland or one complete lobe and two-thirds of the other, no increase in weight of the residual part of the gland was observed. Restoration of thyroid function took place through hypertrophy of the thyroid epithelium in the residual gland, brought about by hyperplasia of the intracellular structures.
