Thyroid hemiagenesis with Graves' disease, Graves' ophthalmopathy and multinodular goiter.
Thyroid hemiagenesis is a rare congenital anomaly in which one of the thyroid lobes with or without isthmus fails to develop. Here we present a woman patient with thyroid hemiagenesis, Graves' disease and ophthalmopathy with nodular goiter. Fine needle aspiration biopsy of the dominant nodule was suspicious of malignancy. The patient was referred for surgery for total thyroidectomy. Histopathol...
متن کاملThyrotropinoma and multinodular goiter: A diagnostic challenge for hyperthyroidism
Thyroid disorders are frequently encountered. The diagnosis is straightforward unless clinical or laboratory findings are inconclusive and/or perplexing. Hyperthyroidism due to a thyrotropin-secreting pituitary adenoma rarely occurs and symptoms due to thyroid hormone excess are subtle. The presentation of the disease becomes unusual when co-secretion of other hormones with thyrotropin or conco...
متن کامل[Incidental differentiated thyroid carcinoma is less prevalent in Graves' disease than in multinodular goiter].
OBJECTIVE Risk factors for differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) are poorly understood, but serum TSH levels, thyroid nodularity, and presence of autoimmunity are well-recognized factors that modulate DTC prevalence. TSH stimulates proliferation of both normal and neoplastic follicular cells. Consequently, thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulins (TSI), because of its TSH-like action, should induce...
متن کاملImmigration and the incidence of Graves' thyrotoxicosis, thyrotoxic multinodular goiter and solitary toxic adenoma.
OBJECTIVE Environmental and genetic factors influence thyrotoxicosis, but how population migration affects the disease panorama is not known. In an urban area in southern Sweden, during the years 1990 until 2003, the population increased from 232 000 to 267 000. In parallel, the proportion of inhabitants born outside Sweden increased. The aim was to investigate whether the incidence of Graves' ...
متن کاملThyroid carcinoma in multinodular goiter
Background: It is suggested that hyperthyroidism protects against thyroid malignancy. It was suggested that the incidence of malignancy is lower in toxic multinodular goiters than in non-toxic multinodular goiters. Recent studies show controversies. Material and methods: The aim of this study is to determine the incidence and type of thyroid carcinoma in toxic and nontoxic multinodular goiter i...
