Q

factitial thyrotoxicosis

A

would see NO thyroglobulin present

factitial - induced by human action - ie/ patient takes thyroid pills - gets hyperthyroid

17
Q

tx of graves

A

radioactive iodine - unless pregnant

or antithyroid drugs - PTU and methimazole

or iodine (wolff chaikoff)

or surgery

18
Q

wolf chaikoff effect

A

reduction in thyroid levels with ingestion of large amount of iodine

19
Q

PTU

A

tx for graves

ok in pregnancy 1st trimester

20
Q

methimazole

A

tx for graves

less hepatic necrosis than PTU

21
Q

causes of low TSH

A

steroid use
dopamine use
severe non-thyroid illness - ILs and TNF

22
Q

pansystolic murmur and S3 in hyperthyroid patient

A

CHF

23
Q

hyperthyroid sx with no TSI Abs?

A

apathetic hyperthyroid

-with autonomous functioning thyroid nodule or toxic multinodular goiter

24
Q

apathetic hyperthyroidism

A

hyperthyroid due to AFTN or TMNG

mutations of TSH receptor

25
Q

iodine induced hypethyroid

A

with amiodarone

excess iodine can cause autonomous thyroid nodules to become toxic MN goiter

26
Q

jod basedow phenomenon

A

iodine induced thyrotoxicosis

27
Q

type I amiodarone thyrotoxicosis

A

jod basedown
-high iodine induces hyperthyroid

with graves or TMNG

28
Q

type II amiodarone thyrotoxicosis

A

thyroiditis

29
Q

increased I-123 uptake?

A

GAIT2

graves
adenoma - plummer
inappropriate TSH (pituitary adenoma)
toxic multinodular goiter
trophoblastic
30
Q

tx for AFTN or TMNG

A

radioactive iodine or surgery

31
Q

subclinical hyperthyroidism

A

low TSH but normal T4

risk of osteoporosis and atrial fib

tx with RAI or antithyroid drugs

32
Q

thyrotoxicosis crisis

A

or storm

caused by acute illness, thyroid surgery, or RAI therapy in undertreated thyrotoxicosis patient

33
Q

high fever, tachy, tachypnea, hypothension, V/D, irritable, delirium, coma, death

A

thyroid storm

34
Q

tx for thyroid storm

A

thiourea - methamizole or PTU

iodides started 1 hour after thiourea

also - metoprolol and hydrocortisone

plasmapharesis

35
Q

muscle pain weakness, ate two pizzas night before, gynecomastia, proximal muscle weakness

A

thyrotoxic periodic paralysis

36
Q

thyrotoxic periodic paralysis

A

channelopathy with muscle weakness

thyroid hormone - increased Na/K ATPase activity - results in hypopolarization and hypokalemia**

after heavy meal or exercise in asian men

37
Q

after heavy meal or exercise in asian men

A

look for thyrotoxic periodic paralysis

thyroid hormone increases Na/K ATPase activity

38
Q

wide pulse pressure

A

with thyrotoxicosis

39
Q

tremor

A

hyperthyroid

hypoglycemia

40
Q

hyperthyroid with decreased radioiodine uptake?

A

amiodarone type 1 - jod basedow

ectopic - stuma ovarii (teratoma)

thyroiditis
-de quervains - post viral infection - painful

painless - reidels fibrosis, postpartum, subacute autoimmune

41
Q

most thyroiditis

A

produce transient hyperthyroid over few months followed by hypothyroid

42
Q

high ESR, following upper resp infection

A

subacute granulomatous hyroiditis

de-quervains

painful
