Low tar cigarettes exposed Thyroid cancer If you or a friend or relative have been diagnosed with cancer, you will find much more detailed information on our patient information site, CancerHelp UK Summary Thyroid cancers are fairly rare types of cancer. Each year, there are about 1,300 new cases in the UK. The thyroid gland is located at the base of the throat. It absorbs iodine from the diet and produces thyroid hormones, which keep the body functioning normally. An enlarged thyroid gland that is not cancer is sometimes called goitre. Thyroid cancer develops from cells of the thyroid gland. If the cancer is not treated, cancer cells from the original site may break away and spread to other parts of the body. Risk factors Gender Thyroid cancer is slightly more common in women than in men. Radiation People who have had radiotherapy to their neck have an increased risk of thyroid cancer later in life (often 10-30 years later). This risk is highest when this treatment took place at a young age. There was also a high incidence of thyroid cancer in Belorussian and Ukranian children who have been exposed to radiation after the Chernobyl accident. Genetic conditions About 1 in 10 people with a certain type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid cancer carry an abnormal gene. This condition is known as MEN2 syndrome. They may pass the gene on to the next generation. A family member with this genetic defect is at an increased risk of developing thyroid cancer.

CLINICAL SECTION Return to Clinical Section Home Page Ophthalmic Case Presentations: Case #2 Two Cases of Acquired, Intermittent Vertical Diplopia Patient Example #1 This is a 45 year old female who recently has noted mild vertical double vision, especially in left gaze when looking up. She also noted apparent protrusion of the left eye, and a generalized dryness of the eyes. Her medical history is remarkable only for a history of hyperthyroidism, treated several years ago with radioactive iodine, and now on replacement thyroid therapy. Patient Example #2 This is a 75 year old female who developed intermittent vertical double vision after bumping her head on a open cabinet door one week ago. The double vision is only apparent while reading through bifocals. Her medical history is significant for well-controlled hypertension. She denies headache or any other symptoms. EXAM: Patient #1 Alert, oriented female in no distress. Blood Pressure is 120/80, pulse rate is 80 and regular. Systemic exam is unremarkable. Thyroid function studies are normal. Ophthalmic and neuro-ophthalmic exam: The visual acuity is 20/20 on the right, 20/25 on the left. The palpebral fissure is obviously wider on the left side, with the upper lid appearing retracted. Pupillary function is normal with no Marcus-Gunn pupil. Fundoscopic examination is normal. The ocular motility is abnormal, as illustrated by the graphic below:

Thyroid Disorders Topics [General] Euthyroid Goiter Euthyroid Sick Syndrome Hyperthyroidism ... Thyroid Cancers [General] Thyroid disorders include euthyroid goiter, euthyroid sick syndrome, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroiditis, and thyroid cancers. Discussion of the synthesis and physiology of thyroid hormones and of the laboratory testing of thyroid function are prerequisites to a thorough understanding of these disorders. Synthesis and Release of Thyroid Hormones The general scheme of thyroid hormone biosynthesis is shown in Fig. 8-1. Iodide, which is ingested in food and water, is actively concentrated by the thyroid gland, converted to organic iodine by thyroid peroxidase, and incorporated into tyrosine in intrafollicular thyroglobulin within the colloid at the basal cell surface of the thyroid follicular cell. The tyrosines are iodinated at one (monoiodotyrosine) or two (diiodotyrosine) sites and then coupled to form the active hormones (diiodotyrosine + diiodotyrosine tetraiodothyronine [thyroxine, T

137. Addison's Disease And Type I Diabetes Information about Schmidt's syndrome a polyglandular autoimmune syndrome involving adrenal insufficiency (Addison's disease) plus autoimmune thyroid disease and/or insulindependent diabetes mellitus. http://addisons-diabetes.gkznet.com/

Home Control My Endo History Links AddisonsDiabetes Forum ... Contact Background My name is Glenn Kardel. I have polyglandular autoimmune syndrome type II, frequently referred to as Schmidt's syndrome. The classic manifestations of this syndrome are adrenal insufficiency plus autoimmune thyroid disease and/or insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. I have all three of the above conditions: Addison's disease , hypothyroidism, and type I diabetes. Addisons and hypothyroidism are treated with oral hormone replacement medications. Type I diabetes is the most serious and difficult to control of the three conditions. Treatment usually involves balancing insulin therapy administered through injections or a pump, diet, and exercise with the goal of maintaining normal blood sugar levels. After I was diagnosed with Addisons and started taking hydrocortisone, I started to have highly variable blood sugars. I began to have sugars in the 300's and also frequent hypoglycemic episodes. I started searching for information about the interaction between Addisons and diabetes or any special treatment strategies related to the two conditions and was surprised to find almost nothing. Given the adverse and potentially dangerous effect Addisons has on diabetes, this information should be explicitly stated and available to people with Addisons and diabetes. This website is my attempt to provide information on this subject and hopefully connect with others who have useful information about Addisons and diabetes.

Most at risk appear to be infants fed soy formulas, followed by high soy users and those using isoflavone supplements". The report noted that infants fed soy formulas are exposed to high levels of isoflavones, which are potent anti-thyroid agents, and that the risks to normal growth and development were significant.
