Comorbid Latent Adrenal Insufficiency with Autoimmune Thyroid Disease.
BACKGROUND Autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD) has been occasionally observed in patients with primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI). In contrast, less than 20 cases of comorbid PAI with ATD have been found in the English literature. One conceivable reason is difficulty in detecting latent PAI. OBJECTIVE Information of clinical presentation and diagnostics is sought to facilitate diagnosis of late...

متن کاملPitutaty insufficiency. Diagnosis masked by a toxic thyroid adenoma.
A patient with undiagnosed pituitary insufficiency who also had a toxic thyroid adenoma is presented. The T3 secreted by the adenoma apparently corrected the secondary thyroid failure, but also aggravated the secondary adrenal failure and almost precipitated adrenal crisis. The diagnostic work-up in such an unusual co-existence is discussed, in particular since the clinical diagnosis of pituita...
متن کاملDevelopmental thyroid hormone insufficiency and brain development: a role for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)?
Thyroid hormones (TH) are essential for normal brain development. Even modest degrees of TH disruption experienced in utero can result in neuropsychological deficits in children despite normal thyroid status at birth. Neurotrophins have been implicated in a host of brain cellular functions, and in particular, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has a well documented role in development and...
