Gonadal dysgenesis with Graves's disease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hashimoto's thyroiditis has previously been associated with gonadal dysgenesis. Recent evidence suggests that Graves's disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis are disorders of cell-mediated immunity and may have a common genetic predisposition. However, patients with both Graves's disease and the Turner syndrome have been reported only rarely. Three such cases are presented and the relation among gonadal dysgenesis, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, and Graves's disease is discussed.

The Coexistence of Gonadal Dysgenesis With Mayer-rokitansky-küster-hauser Syndrome, and Dandy-Walker Variant
Background: Gonadal dysgenesis, the most common cause of primary amenorrhea, is characterized by absent or underdeveloped ovaries. Although the coexistence of gonadal dysgenesis and Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) has been reported, it is still quite infrequent. To the extent that authors searched, just one study reported the association between Rokitansky sequence and Dandy-Walker malfor...
متن کاملBalanced Reciprocal Translocation t(X;1) in a Girl with Tall Stature and Primary Amenorrhea
AbstractChromosomal translocations constitute one of the most important, yet uncommon, causes of primary amenorrhea and gonadal dysgenesis. Although X-autosome translocations are frequently associated with streak gonads and clinical features of the Turner syndrome, the majority of X-autosome carriers may present with a variable phenotype, developmental delay, and recognizable X-linked syndrome ...
متن کاملDicentric Y chromosome in mixed gonadal dysgenesis.
A 15-year-old girl was investigated because of ambiguous genitalia. Her chromosome studies showed a 45, X/45, Xdic(Yq) mosaicism. The identity of the dicentric Y chromosome was demonstrated by its typical fluorescent banding patterns. Histological evidence of mixed gonadal dysgenesis with intragonadal tumour was observed, confirming the occurrence of gonadoblastoma associated with mosaicism in ...
متن کاملA case of Turner's syndrome with hyperthyroidism.
A female patient with classical gonadal dysgenesis associated with Graves' disease is reported. The karyotype was mosaicism of 45,X/46,X,i(Xq). The relationship among Graves' disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Turner's syndrome is discussed along with a review of the reported cases.
متن کاملHyperreninemia and hypertension observed during Kaufmann therapy of patients with gonadal dysgenesis and hypopituitarism.
Cyclic replacement therapy using estrogen and progesterone was instituted in 28 patients with gonadal dysgenesis and 13 patients with hypopituitarism. When estriol was given at a dose of 2 mg per day, 10 patients (9 gonadal dysgenesis and 1 hypopituitarism) developed hyperreninemia and 3 of the 10 patients (all gonadal dysgenesis) were associated with hypertension. These side effects subsided w...
