What should be the cut-off level for antithyroperoxydase antibody? January 2018

Oprisan Bogdan , Ratcu Mihaela , Ilie Cosmina , Gharibafshar Payman , Peretianu Dan , Carsote Mara

Aim: The biological diagnostic of Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT) is based on higher than normal levels of antithyroperoxydase antibodies (ATPO). Our goal was to establish the cut-off limit of normality (the upper limit) for ATPO in our thyroid normal patients. This limit, and not that of the laboratory, should be used as diagnosis of Hashimoto thyroiditis.Material and method: 1. ATPO was investigated in patients with normal level of thyroid hormones (euthyro...

Today dynamic observation are given preference in most cases multinodular goiter. Small nodes without disruption of thyroid function do not affect the quality of life of patients. Wait-and-see tactic with multinodular goiter has previously been submitted due to the lack of adequate replacement therapy. Wait-and-see tactic previously criticized because of its passivity and predictable negative effect on growth nodes. The result of passive observation is the occurrence of goiter...

Thyrotoxic vomiting: an unusual presentation

Omer Tahir , Shrivastava Manu , Seetho Ian

Introduction: Thyrotoxicosis classically presents with tremor, goitre, sweating and diarrhoea. It is increasingly appreciated, however, that presentations can be complex and non-specific. Gastrointestinal symptoms in thyrotoxicosis are thought to derive from increased motility. Thyroid overactivity may be a cause for unexplained repeated vomiting and abdominal pain.Case: A case of 41-year-old man presented with a three-year history of intractable vomitin...

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis: a rare complication of hyperthyroidism for 21-year-old male.

Petraviciute Modesta , Naskauskiene Gintare , Dunauskas Vigantas , Visockiene Zydrune

Introduction: Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) is very rare (prevalence in non-Asian populations 0.10.2%, more frequent in men) and potentially life-threatening complication of hyperthyroidism. TPP develops when thyroid hormones cause sodium-potassium-adenosine triphosphatase (Na/K-ATPase) pump overactivity, leading to rapid potassium shift into the cells resulting in hypokalaemia. This causes transient episode of muscular weakness usually involving lower limbs and hy...

Ivo Catarina , Verissimo David , Pires Vitoria , Serra Filipa , Passos Dolores , Lopes Luis , de Castro Joao Jacome , Marcelino Mafalda

Introduction: Ophthalmopathy and dermatopathy are the most frequent manifestations of Graves Disease (GD). It is also known the relation between GD and other autoimmune diseases like myasthenia gravis. Thymus hyperplasia in GD is already documented on literature but its mechanism is not well understood. There are two possible explanations, one related to thyrotrophin receptors stimulation present on thymus, and other related to tissue stimulation due to generalized hyper...

Familial dysalbuminaemic hyperthyroxinaemia, a thyroid conundrum

Subramaniam Yuvanaa , Mlawa Gideon

Background: Familial dysalbuminaemic hyperthyroxinaemia (FDH) is an interesting autosomal dominant condition that is associated with euthyroid hyperthyroxinaemia, whereby patients remain euthyroid but laboratory value will show high free thyroxine (fT4) level. It is caused by mutations in ALB (albumin) gene that increase affinity of albumin for thyroxine (T4). The usual thyroid assay will show a spuriously high level of thyroxine. This interferen...
