BACKGROUND/AIM The tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) sunitinib malate is nowadays a standard first-line treatment option for patients with metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence and clinical course of thyrotoxicosis in our cohort of patients treated with sunitinib. PATIENTS AND METHODS Medical records of all patients treated with f...
A 45-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of discomfort in the cervical region. Laboratory findings revealed thyrotoxicosis with positive TSH receptor antibodies, but acute inflammatory data were absent. After three weeks the thyroid hormone levels spontaneously decreased to hypothyroid levels, and thyroidal radioactive iodine uptake (RAID) was below normal. A needlebiopsy specim...
many as a single entity. The aetiology of the disease remains obscure. It has, however, been clearly established that thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is not responsible for the excessive thyroid activity. An abnormal thyroid stimulator (known as long-acting thyroid stimulator, or LATS), which is both chemically and immunologically distinct from TSH, is found in the serum of many patients with...
AIM The differentiation of destruction-induced thyrotoxicosis and Graves' disease (GD) is of great importance for selection of proper therapy. Radioactive iodine uptake (RAIU) is the gold standard for differentiating these two conditions but its application has remained somewhat limited. Thyroid color Doppler flow sonography (CDFS) is a potential alternative of RAIU but more supporting evidence...
Serum BNP (brain naturiuretic peptide) and ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide) levels are reportedly elevated in patients with thyrotoxicosis. The increases may not be due to thyrotoxicosis itself but to secondary cardiovascular changes such as chronic heart failure (HF) or atrial fibrillation (AF) which frequently accompany thyrotoxicosis. We measured serum ANP and BNP levels in 130 patients with...
BACKGROUND Thyrotoxicosis has multiple etiologies, manifestations, and potential therapies. Appropriate treatment requires an accurate diagnosis and is influenced by coexisting medical conditions and patient preference. This article describes evidence-based clinical guidelines for the management of thyrotoxicosis that would be useful to generalist and subspeciality physicians and others providi...
A 37-year-old man presented to the emergency department (ED) for palpitations, anxiety, and weight loss. Physical examination revealed a pulse of 104 beats/min, blood pressure 140/92 mmHg, respirations 12 breaths/min, and oral temperature 99 F. Neck examination was notable for a diffusely enlarged thyroid without discrete nodules. Bedside emergency ultrasound (EUS) was performed with a high fre...
