Central hypothyroidism

Pituitary, 2008
Central hypothyroidism (CH) is a rare cause of hypothyroidism due to an insufficient stimulation of an otherwise normal thyroid gland and it is caused by either pituitary (secondary hypothyroidism) or hypothalamic (tertiary hypothyroidism) defects.

Central hypothyroidism

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2009
A 15-mth-old male child of consanguineous parents, presented with classical features of congenital hypothyroidism. Serum total thyroxine (T4), total triiodothyronine (T3) and TSH were low. There was no evidence of deficiency of other pituitary hormones. Magnetic resonance imaging of the pituitary was normal.

Central Hypothyroidism

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1992
Central hypothyroidism is an uncommon condition characterized by insufficient thyroid gland stimulation by TSH, owing to hypothalamic and/or pituitary dysfunction. It is rarely isolated but more often occurs in conjunction with deficiencies of other pituitary hormones, as well as with neurologic symptoms and signs owing to hypothalamic/pituitary ...

Pseudo-Central Hypothyroidism

Southern Medical Journal, 2003
Central hypothyroidism is an exceedingly rare form of hypothyroidism that results from a variety of conditions affecting the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland. The classic biochemical abnormality seen in these patients includes a low serum level of circulating thyroxine (T4) concomitant with an inappropriately low level of thyrotropin.

Central Hypothyroidism

2015
Central Hypothyrodism (CeH) is the hypothyroid condition due to an insufficient stimulation by thyrotropin (TSH) of an otherwise normal thyroid gland. CeH is about 1,000-fold more rare than primary hypothyroidism and raises several challenges for the clinicians, mainly because they cannot rely on the systematic use of the “reflex TSH strategy” for ...

Central Hypothyroidism in Children

2014
Central congenital hypothyroidism (CCH) is an underdiagnosed disorder poorly described in childhood and adolescence. Congenital defects in thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) synthesis, secretion or bioactivity may lead to a state of 'regulatory' hypothyroidism expressed through aberrantly low or normal TSH levels and low thyroxine (T4), a hormonal ...

Quetiapine-Induced Central Hypothyroidism

Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, 2020
Hypothyroidism has been associated with quetiapine, but the underlying mechanism is not well understood and has been presumed to result from thyroid gland dysfunction (primary hypothyroidism). We present a case of symptomatic quetiapine-induced hypothyroidism due to hypothalamic/pituitary gland dysfunction (central [secondary] hypothyroidism).

Central Hypothyroidism—Trophoprivic Hypothyroidism

1987
The term central hypothyroidism refers to the development of thyroid failure secondary to loss of TSH drive. The thyroid gland, which is intrinsically normal, gradually fails to function, since it is deprived of its tropic stimulus (hypothyrotropic hypothyroidism).

Central Hypothyroidism and Hyperthyroidism

Medical Clinics of North America, 1985
Thyroid function is maintained by tonic secretion of TSH by the pituitary. TSH secretion, in turn, is dependent on hypothalamic TRH production. Therefore, diseases of the hypothalamus and pituitary are frequently associated with TSH deficiency, producing central hypothyroidism.

Central Hypothyroidism and Sturge-Weber Syndrome

Pediatric Neurology, 2008
Sturge-Weber syndrome is a rare disorder manifesting with a facial port-wine birthmark and a vascular malformation of the brain. Infants and children present with seizures and stroke-like episodes with focal neurologic deficits. Our previous investigations revealed that growth-hormone deficiency occurs with an increased prevalence in Sturge-Weber ...
