THE IMPORTANCE OF ANTI PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES IN PATIENTS WITH NODULAR THYROID GOITER
Hypothyroidism is a condition of reduced production, distribution, or absence of action of thyroid hormones. Clinical diagnosis of hypothyroidism is not easily established due to the nonspecific clinical manifestations. Determination of serum TSH is the first-line test for the diagnosis of hypothyroidism. The aim of the study was to determine the presence of other endocrine disorders in patients with subclinical (TSH levels between 5 and 10 mIU/l), or clinical (TSH above 10 mIU/l) hypothyrodism. We analyzed 50 patients (35 with clinical hypothyroidism and 15 with subclinical form).
Nodular goiter is a clinically recognizable restricted structure change of the thyroid gland. FNA is the first line diagnostic test for an enlarged thyroid gland. TSH is known as a thyroid growth factor, but the pathogenic role of this hormone in thyroid oncogenesis is unclear.
