diffuse goiter (enlarged thyroid) produced by autoimmune antibodies stimulation of the thyroid gland to secrete more thyroid hormones.</p><p>Plummers Disease (Toxic nodular thyroid)</p><p>Hashimotos Disease (Thyroiditis)</p><p>Toxic thyroid adenoma causes excessive thyroid hormone production from a single nodule in the thyroid gland.</p><p>TSH-producing adenoma or pituitary adenoma is tumors of the pituitary gland that produce thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which causes excess secretion of thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) by the thyroid gland</p><p>HCG-mediated thyrotoxicosis: HCG is a hormone that reaches high levels during pregnancy and is a thyroid stimulator that can produce different types of thyrotoxicosis during a pregnancy.</p><p>Drug-induced thyrotoxicosis: The drugs which may produce thyrotoxicosis are interferon, molecular-targeted agents, amiodarone, and thyroid hormone itself.</p><p>Higher exogenous secretion of thyroid hormone</p><p>Factitious thyrotoxicosis: thyrotoxicosis due to the accidental or intentional thyroxine ingestion.<br />Idiopathic Hyperthyroid Disease is produced by ingestion of excessive replacement therapy with levothyroxine hormone.</p><p>The most frequent cause of thyrotoxicosis is Graves disease, accompanied by toxic multi-nodular goiter (TMNG) and toxic adenoma (TA).</p><p>Other causes are thyroiditis, sub-acute thyroiditis, and gestational thyrotoxicosis.</p><p>Rare causes of thyrotoxicosis are struma ovarii, gestational trophoblastic neoplasia, activation mutations of the TSH receptor and thyroid cancer metastases</p><p>Patients with thyrotoxicosis most often present with symptoms linked to excess thyroid hormone such as:<br />Weight loss with increased appetite,<br />Heat intolerance with raised sweating,<br />Palpitations,<br />Tremor,<br />Anxiety,</p><p>Thyrotoxicosis is evident by reduced TSH levels and raised T3 and T4 levels</p><p>There are 3 main treatments:<br />Anti-thyroid drugs<br />Radioactive iodine therapy<br />Thyroid surgery</p><p>Surgery may be needed:<br />a. if the thyrotoxicosis did not improve with anti-thyroid drugs<br />b. if the thyrotoxic women do not want radioactive iodine therapy</p><p>TABLE OF CONTENT<br />Introduction<br />Chapter 1 Thyrotoxicosis<br />Chapter 2 Causes<br />Chapter 3 Symptoms<br />Chapter 4 Diagnosis<br />Chapter 5 Treatment<br />Chapter 6 Prognosis<br />Chapter 7 Gravess Disease<br />Chapter 8 Thyroid Eye Disease<br />Epilogue</p>...9781005847135_Kenneth Keelibro_electonico_e6e38e21-29e6-340d-a2a3-82e608274cef_9781005847135;9781005847135_9781005847135Kenneth KeeInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/smashwords-epub-dae66ae6-4cda-4ceb-8921-6b8ca05ab359.epub2022-02-13T00:00:00+00:00Kenneth Kee
