Defintion • THYROTOXICOSIS • Increased thyroid hormone levels with biological effects on tissues and systems • HYPERTIROIDISM • Hyperfunction of thyroid gland
History • Have described different forms of hyperthyroidism • Parry (1786), • Flajani (1808), • Graves (1835), • Basedow (1840), • Moebius (1886), • Plummer (1913 – adenomul toxic), • Adams, Purves, Mc Kenzie (1956 – long-acting thyroid stimulator immunoglobulins – LATS)

HYPERTIROIDISM Etiolology : incidence other (< 1%) Autonomic - >40 ani - b=f • Graves disease • < 40 ani • f / b = 10 / 1

Thyroid carcinoma follicular struma ovarii Hypertiroidism – etiologyA. tirotoxicosis with hyperthyroidism 3.Iodine induced • Jod-Basedow • Iodine contrast media, amiodarone (thyroid excess and autonomous thyroid function)
Hypertiroidism - etiology B. Thyrotoxicosis without hyperfunction of the thyroid gland 4. Distruction • thyroiditis • subacute de Quervain thyroiditis • Silent thyroiditis • Drug induced (amiodarone, interferon-alfa) • Irradiation, 5. External intake • Iatrogenic • Factitia • foods (« hamburger thyrotoxicosis »)
HYPERTIROIDISM / THYROTOXICOSISsigns and symptoms • Simptoms due to increased number of cathecolamine receptors • palpitation (tachicardia, atrial fibrilation) • Increasd perspiration • tremor , hiperreflexia, eyelids retraction • Simptoms due to metabolic actons of thyroid hormones • Weight loss with increased appetite , decreased fat and muscle mass • termofobia • Warm skin, fine, moist; onicholisis • Muscle weakness, • osteoporosis • Menstrual problems in women and gynecomastia in men • Simptoms induced by thyrpid hormone effects on central nervous system • Nervousness , irritability, psychological labillity,
signs Tachicardis, continous, nocturnal + effort associated dyspnea Systolic Hypertension Increased cardiac output FC peripheral resistance miocardial contractility Cardiotireosis Atrial fibrilation : 10% Rarely < 40 ani Corrected by euthyroid state Anticoagulant treatment Embolic risk (8%) Congestive hearth failure Fibrilation, Aged patients Worsening coronary hearth disease Cardio-vascular signs and symptoms
Nervosness, irritability, Emotional disturbance Disturbance of attention and mood. Pseudo psychotic forms Tremor Muscle weakness Rapid reflexes, Amiotrophy (pseudo miopathic forms) Hypokaliemic periodic paralysis Neuro muscular signs

Positive diagnosis • Clincal signs and symptoms • TSH: suppressed (excepton TSH-secreting pituitary adenoma) • FT4 and/or FT3 • Etiologic diagnosis • history • pregnancy • Painfull thyroid • drugs • Clinical signs • goiter • Extrathyroidal signs • TSH receptor stimulating immunoglobulins (TRAb) • Scintigraphy • Urinary iodine
