METHODS: Free thyroxin and thyrotropin levels were measured in 11 patients (age range 17 to 60 years) with Cushing~s disease both before and after resection of the pituitary adenoma. RESULTS: Free thyroxin levels were low (8.3 to 11.7 pmol/l) in 7 patients. These patients had no clinical manifestations of hypothyroidism. In 4 patients, cure of the pituitary adenoma led to normalization of the thyroid hormones 10 days after operation (13 to 55 pmol/l); in the other cases surgical cure was unsuccessful and thyroxin levels remained low. Cortisol levels were finally normalized in these patients after irradiation of the pituitary, a second pituitary operation, or bilateral resection of the adrenal glands in 2 patients. Normal thyroxin levels were thus achieved. There was no correlation between serum cortisol and free thyroxin. CONCLUSION: Thyroid hormones should be assayed regularly in patients with Cushing~s disease as a supplementary control of treatment effectiveness. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=9162 ------>authors2=Deng, WP ------>authors3=Chen, CY ------>authors4=Fu, YK ------>authors5=Yang PC ------>authors6= ------>authors6_c=None ------>authors=Hung, WS ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c=None ------>publish_area=None ------>updateTitle=[Evolution of levels of free thyroxine and thyrotropin in treated Cushing disease] ------>language=2 ------>check_flag=None ------>submit_date=None ------>country=None ------>no=4 ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho=None ------>publish_year=2003 ------>submit_flag=None ------>publish_month=None |
