Questions and Answers About Thyroid Disorders and The Kelly G. Ripken Program What is a thyroid? The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck in the front of the windpipe. In healthy people, the thyroid makes just the right amounts of two hormones, T4 and T3, which perform important actions throughout the body. These hormones regulate many aspects of our metabolism, affecting everything from our temperature, mood, muscle strength and appetite to heart rate. What are thyroid disorders? When something goes wrong with the thyroid, it is often because the hormones produced by the gland are off balance. Hyperthyroidism is a condition that occurs when the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone in an uncontrolled manner. The gland also may become enlarged. Because the body's metabolism is increased, patients may feel hotter than other people and often lose weight even though they may be eating more. Patients usually experience fatigue, but have trouble sleeping. Trembling of the hands and hard or irregular heart beats may develop. Patients may become irritable and easily upset. Hypothyroidism is a condition that occurs when the thyroid gland is unable to produce enough thyroid hormone to meet the body's needs. It often results from thyroid gland inflammation or from previous treatment for an overactive thyroid gland. Patients may have fatigue, constipation, memory loss and depression. They may be intolerant to cold and may have a slower heart rate. Dry hair and skin are seen in some patients. Others have no symptoms at all.

Sharma T HYROID is one of the endocrine glands along with pituitary, para-thyroids, adrenals, gonads (testis and ovaries) and pancreatic islets (producing insulin). The brain through its hypothalamus has further control over the pituitary. The word endocrine was coined by the famous physiologist, Starling, for those glands which pour their secretions directly into the blood and not into the duct or lumen of an organ. The products of these organs are known as hormones which in Greek means "to set in motion" and this is an appropriate description of these chemicals because they set in motion their important cellular and physiological processes and their secretions are controlled by a feedback mechanism of the glands.

The term nontoxic goiter refers to enlargement of the thyroid which is not associated with overproduction of thyroid hormone or malignancy. The thyroid can become very large so that it can easily be seen as a mass in the neck. This picture depicts the outline of a normal size thyroid in black and the greatly enlarged goiter in pink. There are a number of factors which may cause the thyroid to become enlarged. A diet deficient in iodine can cause a goiter but this is rarely the cause because of the readily available iodine in our diets. A more common cause of goiter in America is an increase in thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in response to a defect in normal hormone synthesis within the thyroid gland. The thyroid stimulating hormone comes from the pituitary and causes the thyroid to enlarge. This enlargement usually takes many years to become manifest. This picture depicts the typical appearance of a goiter in a middle aged woman. Note how her entire neck looks swollen because of the large thyroid. This mass will compress the trachea (windpipe) and esophagus (swallowing tube) leading to symptoms such as coughing, waking up from sleep feeling like you cant breath, and the sensation that food is getting stuck in the upper throat. Once a goiter gets this big, surgical removal is the only means to relieve the symptoms. Yes, sometimes they can get a lot bigger than this! INDICATIONS FOR TREATMENT Most small to moderate sized goiters can be treated by providing thyroid hormone in the form of a pill.

Headaches, anxiety, nervousness, and hypertension. adrenal tumor cancer adrenal thyroid gland high blood pressure hypertension adrenal adrenal adrenal The most common thyroid disorder occurring around or during pregnancy is thyroid hormone deficiency, or hypothyroidism. The details of hypothyroidism are covered on several other pages on our site , so only those factors pertaining to pregnancy are discussed here. Hypothyroidism can cause a variety of changes in a woman's menstrual periods: irregularity, heavy periods, or loss of periods. When hypothyroidism is severe, it can reduce a woman's chances of becoming pregnant. Checking thyroid gland function with a simple blood test is an important part of evaluating a woman who has trouble becoming pregnant. If detected, an underactive thyroid gland can be easily treated with thyroid hormone replacement therapy. If thyroid blood tests are normal, however, treating an infertile woman with thyroid hormones will not help at all, and may cause other problems. Because some of the symptoms of hypothyroidism such as tiredness and weight gain are already quite common in pregnant women, it is often overlooked and not considered as a possible cause of these symptoms. Blood tests, particularly measuring the

116. Thyroid Cancer: Diagnosis, Treatment And Prognosis. EndocrineWeb.com Endocrine disorders Endocrine Surgery. http://www.endocrineweb.com/thyroidca.html

There are over 11,000 new cases of thyroid cancer each year in the United States. Females are more likely to have thyroid cancer at a ratio of three to one. Thyroid cancer can occur in any age group, although it is most common after age 30 and its aggressiveness increases significantly in older patients. The majority of patients present with a nodule on their thyroid which typically does not cause symptoms. Occasionally, symptoms such as hoarseness, neck pain, and enlarged lymph nodes do occur. Although as much as 10 % of the population will have thyroid nodules, the vast majority are benign. Only approximately 5% of all thyroid nodules are malignant. A nodule which is cold on scan (shown in photo outlined in red and yellow) is more likely to be malignant, nevertheless, the majority of these are benign as well. A lot of information about thyroid nodules and the potential of these nodules to be malignant is contained on 3 pages about nodules: Introduction to thyroid nodules The workup of thyroid nodules and the role of Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy (FNA) The role of thyroid ultrasound and what it means Types of Thyroid Cancer There are four types of thyroid cancer some of which are much more common than others.

117. Thyroid Surgery For Different Thyroid Diseases. EndocrineWeb.com Endocrine disorders Endocrine Surgery. http://www.endocrineweb.com/surthyroid.html

Thyroid Operations Several Surgical Options for the Thyroid Gland Depending on the Problem Which operation is performed on a thyroid gland depends upon 2 major factors. The first is the thyroid disease present which is necessitating the operation. The second is the anatomy of the thyroid gland itself as is illustrated below. If a dominant solitary nodule is present in a single lobe, then removal of that lobe is the preferred operation (if an operation is even warranted). If a massive goiter is compressing the trachea and esophagus, the the goal of surgery will be to remove the mass and usually this means a sub-total or total thyroidectomy (occasionally a lobectomy will suffice). If a hot nodule is producing too much hormone resulting in hyperthyroidism, then removal of the lobe which harbors the hot nodule is all that is needed. Most surgeons and endocrinologists recommend total or near total thyroidectomy in virtually all cases of thyroid carcinoma . In some patients with papillary carcinomas of small size, a less aggressive approach may be taken (lobectomy with removal of the isthmus). A lymph node dissection within the anterior and lateral neck is indicated in patients with well differentiated ( papillary or follicular ) thyroid cancer if the lymph nodes can be palpated. This is a more extensive operation than is needed in the majority of thyroid cancer patients. All patients with
