Summary

Chlordecone, an organochlorine pesticide used in the French Caribbean for several decades, is recognized as an endocrine disruptor. Accumulation in thyroid tissue may be modeled using several factors, including blood chlordecone levels, environmental exposure associated with place of residence, and dietary habits.

Conditions

  • Thyroid and Parathyroid Surgery

Interventions

OTHER

Blood and thyroid tissue collection

Collection of blood, thyroid tissue, and adjacent adipose tissue samples during routine thyroid surgery for measurement of chlordecone concentration and assessment of exposure-related factors.
