Abstract

In workers occupied with the production of paratertiary butylphenol, a hepatosplenopathy and a goiter with disorder of the synthesis of thyroid hormone have been observed for the first time besides the well-known vitiliginous depigmentation. It is supposed that paratertiary butylphenol has a systemic effect and causes lesions of various organic systems.
