Classification of hyperthyroidism • Diffuse toxic goiter • Hyperfunction adenoma • Toxic multinodular goiter • Toxic adenoma(Plummer’s disease) • Carcinoma • Subacute thyroiditis • Chronic thyroiditis Iod-Basedow’s disease transient thyrotoxicosis Disorder of storage Thyroid destruction Excess iodide THYROID Extrathyroid source of hormone FT3, FT4

Graves' disease • Thyroid hormone overproduction • AutoImmune (TSI - TSH-R Ab) mediated

Graves' disease Featured as: • Hyperthyroidism • Autoimmune mediated • Diffuse goiter • Exophthalmos • Pretibial myexedema

Etiology And Pathogenesis - autoimmune disease HLA-DR3 Infection mental factors genetic factors Environmentalrisk factor defect in immunoregulation with failure of “suppressor ” T lymocytphes function. allowing “helper” T lymocytphes to stimulate B lymphocytes to produce TSH receptor antibodies(TRAb) • Thyroid-stimulating antibody (TSAb) • Thyroid- stimulating blocking antibody (TSBAb)

Graves' disease • Thyroid manifestations of Graves' disease • diffuse toxic goiter • Extrathyroidal manifestations of Graves' disease • Ophthalmopathy • Dermopathy • Be immunologically mediated activation of fibroblasts in the extraocular muscles and skin, with accumulation of glycosaminoglycans, leading to the trapping of water and edema. Later, fibrosis becomes prominent • The fibroblast activation is caused by cytokines derived from locally infiltrating T cells and macrophages.

Clinical Manifestations Hyperthyroidism - common to any cause of thyrotoxicosis Autoimmune mediated - specific for Graves' disease • Diffuse goiter • Exophthalmos • Pretibial myexedema

Clinical Manifestations • The clinical presentation depends on the severity of thyrotoxicosis, the duration of the disease, individual susceptibility to excess thyroid hormone, and the age of the patient.

Symptoms of hypermetabolism • unexplained weight loss, despite an enhanced appetite • sweating and heat intolerance, particularly during warm weather, • Symptoms of sympathetic hyperactivity • hyperactivity, nervousness, and irritability • Insomnia and impaired concentration • Fine tremor • hyperreflexia, muscle wasting, and proximal myopathy without fasciculation.

Gastrointestinal : • Gastrointestinal transit time is decreased, leading to increased stool frequency, often with diarrhea and occasionally mild steatorrhea. • Sex: • Women frequently experience oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea; in men there may be impaired sexual function and, rarely, gynecomastia. • bone: • osteopenia in long-standing thyrotoxicosis

cardiovascular manifestation • palpitations (sinus tachycardia, supraventricular tachycardia, Atrial fibrillation ) • a bounding pulse, widened pulse pressure, and an aortic systolic murmur (due to high cardiac output ) • worsening of angina or heart failure in the elderly or those with preexisting heart disease.

Diffuse goiter • Thyroid is usually diffusely enlarged to two to three times its normal size. • There may be a thrill or bruit due to the increased vascularity of the gland and the hyperdynamic circulation.

Exophthalmos • a staring appearance -Lid retraction, is the result of sympathetic overactivity. • a sensation of grittiness, eye discomfort, and excess tearing. • proptosis • some cases of euthyroid ophthalmopathy. • the enlarged extraocular muscles typical of the disease • compression of the optic nerve at the apex of the orbit, leading to papilledema, peripheral field defects, and, if left untreated, permanent loss of vision.

NO SPECS scheme • 0 =No signs or symptoms •  1 =Only signs (lid retraction or lag), no symptoms •  2 =Soft tissue involvement (periorbital edema) •  3 =Proptosis (>22 mm) •  4 =Extraocular muscle involvement (diplopia) •  5 =Corneal involvement •  6 =Sight loss

Special Clinical Manifestations • Thyroid storm • Infiltrating exophthalmos • Hyperthyroid heart disease • Periodic paralysis • Atypical Hyperthyroidism • T3 .T4 type hyperthyroidism • Subclinical hyperthyroidism • Pregnancy hyperthyroidism • Pretibial myexedema

Thyrotoxic crisis • be precipitated by • acute illness (e.g., stroke, infection, trauma, diabetic ketoacidosis) • surgery (especially on the thyroid) • overdoses of thyroid hprmone • radioiodine treatment of a patient with partially treated or untreated hyperthyroidism.

Thyrotoxic crisis • Manifestation: • Fever(>39C) • Increased heart rate,Af,AF, • Weight loss • sweating • vomiting, diarrhea, and jaundice • delirium, seizures, coma,

hypokalemic periodic paralysis • this disorder is particularly common in Asian males with thyrotoxicosis. • Hypokalemia was recovered after patasium supplement or rest • Released after hyperthyroidism well control

Thyroid dermopathy • the anterior and lateral aspects of the lower leg (pretibial myxedema) • noninflamed, indurated plaque with a deep pink or purple color and an "orange-skin" appearance. • Nodular involvement can occur, and the condition can rarely extend over the whole lower leg and foot, mimicking elephantiasis.

Hyperthyroid heart disease • Featured as: • heart enlargement • arrhythmias • Heart failure • Other causes excluded • Be recovered after hyperthyroidism well control

Graves' disease is characterized by an enlarged gland and increased tracer uptake that is distributed homogeneously. • Toxic adenomas appear as focal areas of increased uptake, with suppressed tracer uptake in the remainder of the gland. • In toxic multinodular goiter, the gland is enlarged¾often with distorted architecture¾and there are multiple areas of relatively increased or decreased tracer uptake. • Subacute thyroiditis is associated with very low uptake because of follicular cell damage and TSH suppression. • Thyrotoxicosis factitia, caused by self-administration of thyroid hormone, is also associated with low uptake.

Diagnosis of Graves' disease • function diagnosis: • manifestations of hyperthyroidism • diffuse goiter on palpation • Ophthalmopathy • biochemically confirmed thyrotoxicosis • Etiological diagnosis : • positive TRAb, (TGAb, TPOAb,possible) antibodies • often a personal or family history of autoimmune disorders.

Differential Diagnosis • Simple goiter • Neurosis • pheochromocytoma

TREATMENT • Reducing thyroid hormone synthesis ---- antithyroid drugs • Reducing the amount of thyroid tissue---- radioiodine (131I) treatment or subtotal thyroidectomy.

antithyroid drugs • propylthiouracil, methimazole. • inhibit the function of TPO, reducing oxidation and organification of iodide. • also reduce thyroid antibody levels by mechanisms that remain unclear, and they appear to enhance rates of remission. • Propylthiouracil inhibits deiodination of T4 ® T3. However, this effect is of minor benefit, except in the most severe thyrotoxicosis, and is offset by the much shorter half-life of this drug (90 min) compared to methimazole (6 h).

The initial dose : • methimazole 10 to 20 mg q8h or q12 h, but once-daily dosing is possible after euthyroidism is restored. • Propylthiouracil 100 to 200 mg q6h or q8 h, and divided doses are usually given throughout the course. • titration regimen: dose be gradually reduced as thyrotoxicosis improves. • The usual daily maintenance doses : • methimazole 2.5 to 10 mg • propylthiouracil 50 to 100 mg • block-replace regimen: high doses combined with levothyroxine supplementation to avoid drug-induced hypothyroidism. • Maximum remission rates are achieved by 18 to 24 months

Thyroid function tests and clinical manifestations are reviewed 3 to 4 weeks after starting treatment, and the dose is titrated based on free T4 levels. • All patients should be followed closely for relapse during the first year after treatment and at least annually thereafter.

side effects • common :rash, urticaria, fever, and arthralgia (1 to 5% of patients). • hepatitis, an SLE-like syndrome • agranulocytosis (e.g., sore throat, fever, mouth ulcers) (<1%). • monitor blood counts, as the onset of agranulocytosis is idiosyncratic and abrupt.

Other regimen • Propranolol (20 to 40 mg every 6 h) or longer acting beta blockers, such as atenolol, may be useful to control adrenergic symptoms, especially in the early stages before antithyroid drugs take effect. • complex iodide

Radioiodine • causes progressive destruction of thyroid cells • be used as initial treatment or for relapses after a trial of antithyroid drugs. • The risk of thyrotoxic crisis can be avoided by pretreatment with antithyroid drugs for at least a month before treatment. • Antithyroid drugs must be stopped 3 to 5 days before radioiodine administration to achieve optimum iodine uptake.

dose based on clinical features, such as the severity of thyrotoxicosis, the size of the goiter (increases the dose needed), and the level of radioiodine uptake (decreases the dose needed). • 131I dosage generally ranges between 185 MBq (5 mCi) to 555 MBq (15 mCi). • Many authorities favor an approach aimed at thyroid ablation (as opposed to euthyroidism), given that levothyroxine replacement is straightforward.

Pregnancy and breast feeding are absolute contraindications to radioiodine treatment, but patients can conceive safely 6 to 12 months after treatment.

Surgery • Careful control of thyrotoxicosis with antithyroid drugs • followed by potassium iodide (3 drops SSKI orally tid) to avoid thyrotoxic crisis and to reduce the vascularity of the gland.

Management of Thyrotoxic crisis Prevention Treatment principles: • intensive monitoring and supportive care • identification and treatment of the precipitating cause • measures that reduce thyroid hormone synthesis. • inhibitory action on T4 ® T3 conversion: Large doses of propylthiouracil (600-mg loading dose and 200 to 300 mg every 6 h) should be given orally or by nasogastric tube or per rectum • One hour after the first dose of propylthiouracil, stable iodide is given to block thyroid hormone synthesis :potassium iodide (5 drops SSKI every 6 h), may be given orally. • Propranolol should also be given to reduce tachycardia and other adrenergic manifestations (40 to 60 mg orally every 4 h; or 2 mg intravenously every 4 h). • glucocorticoids (e.g., dexamethasone, 2 mg every 6 h), antibiotics if infection is present, cooling, and intravenous fluids.

Ophthalmopathy • mild or moderate :requires no active treatment • Discomfort can be relieved with artificial tears (e.g., 1% methylcellulose) and the use of dark glasses with side frames. • Periorbital edema responds to a more upright sleeping position. • Corneal exposure during sleep can be avoided by taping the eyelids shut. Minor degrees of diplopia improve with prisms fitted to spectacles.

Severe ophthalmopathy • high-dose glucocorticoids + cyclosporine (sometimes)be tapered by 5 mg every 1 to 2 weeks, • Pulse therapy: intravenous methylprednisolone followed by an oral regimen • External beam radiotherapy of the orbits • Octreotide • LT4:adjust hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid axis

Graves' disease in pregnancy • absolute contraindications to radioiodine treatment • Propylthiouracil is usually used because of relatively low transplacental transfer and its ability to block T4 ® T3 conversion. • The lowest effective dose of propylthiouracil should be given, as blocking doses of these drugs produce fetal hypothyroidism. • Breast feeding is safe with low doses of antithyroid drugs. • Subtotal thyroidectomy is an option during pregnancy (4th-6th)

Radioactive iodine therapy Simple method for the treatment of thyrotoxicosis, no increased prevalence of thyroid carcinoma, leukemia or transmissible genetic damage. 1.complication • Hypothyroidism • Radiation throiditis • Exacerbation of hyperthyroidism 2.indication 3. Forbidden Cases
