Preliminary observations suggest that pregnant women are the exception. To further elucidate this association, we studied both immediate and long-term outcomes in women who had thyrotoxicosis and heart ...

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF IODINE METABOLISM IN PREGNANCY, SPORADIC GOITRE AND THYROTOXICOSIS

Acta Endocrinologica, 1965
ABSTRACT Studies of iodine metabolism have been carried out in 15 pregnant women, 33 cases with sporadic goitre and 11 with thyrotoxicosis. A low plasma inorganic iodine was common to the three groups. In pregnancy and sporadic goitre the thyroid clearance of iodine was elevated and the absolute iodine uptake normal. A high thyroid clearance of

Management of thyrotoxicosis and pregnancy: Review of the current literature and an update of the care pathway

Annales d'Endocrinologie, 2022
Pregnancy can be complicated by hyperthyroidism or thyrotoxicosis. Diagnosis is founded on an increase in free thyroid hormones and low TSH. The most frequent etiologies are Graves' disease, an autoimmune disease linked to stimulatory anti-TSH receptor antibodies, and non-autoimmune gestational hyperthyroidism linked to the TSH-like activity of the ...
