Extractions: Goiter Advertising Goiter is the medical term for enlargement of the thyroid gland. A butterfly shaped structure located in the front, lower section of the neck, the thyroid controls the speed at which the body's metabolism operates. In children, the thyroid is essential for normal growth and development. Goiter is often merely a symptom of a more serious thyroid condition, such as: If a child is born with an enlarged thyroid gland, it is referred to as congenital goiter . In some cases, a child may have

Extractions: Medstudents' Homepage Thyrotoxicosis are the clinical, physiologic and biochemical syndromes that result when tissues are exposed to, and respond to high levels of thyroid hormone. In most instances, thyrotoxicosis is due to hyperactivity of thyroid gland, or hyperthyroidism (hypermetabolism). Occasionally, thyrotoxicosis may be due to other causes such as excessive ingestion of thyroid hormone or secretion form ectopic sites. There are various forms of thyrotoxicosis and the most common is Graves Disease. Graves disease, also known as Parrys or Basedows disease or diffuse toxic goiter, is a disorder with three major manifestations: hyperthyroidism with diffuse goiter, ophthalmopathy, and dermopathy. They do not appear together. Indeed, one or two need never appear, and moreover, the three may run courses that are largely independent of one another. It is the most common form of thyrotoxicosis. It affects as many as 1.9 per cent of the female population. The ratio of women to men is as high as 7:1. It reaches its peak incidence between the third and forth decades and the reason for the female predominance in this as in all thyroid diseases is unknown. Genetic factors play an important role, since there is an increased frequency haplotypes HLA-B8 and -DRw3 in Caucasian, HLA-Bw36 in Japanese, and HLA-Bw46 in Chinese patients with the disease. Graves disease is currently viewed as an autoimmune disease of unknown cause. Hyperthyroidism is its principal manifestation, yet TSH is suppressed and no intrinsic abnormalities in the gland have been identified.

Dorfman, MD Arch Intern Med. 1996;156:2165-2172 Between 4% and 7% of individuals in the United States have palpable thyroid nodules. Thyroid nodules are more common in women and increase in frequency with age. Fewer than 10% of solitary nodules are malignant. The physician who encounters a patient with a thyroid nodule must be able to determine its clinical significance, especially with regard to possible malignancy, compression of structures of the neck, or thyroid dysfunction. In this document, important elements of the history, physical examination, and laboratory evaluation are reviewed, and a suggested management strategy is presented. This outline is not intended to be all-inclusive, nor does it preclude additional evaluation, according to the specific clinical situation. Multinodularity, especially if the nodules all have the same consistency, is consistent with a benign multinodular goiter. A nodule or mass that is dominant in size or has a different consistency than other nodules within the gland should be evaluated by employing the same criteria as those outlined for single nodules. A midline nodule over the hyoid bone that moves up with protrusion of the tongue is likely to be a thyroglossal duct cyst.

Extractions: GOITER Goiter is a swelling of the thyroid gland and it can become painful and interfere with swallowing. I believe that goiter is the normal response of the body to increase thyroid size and output when mineral deficiencies prevent the thyroid from being able to make enough hormone. The two main mineral deficiencies which are known to cause goiter are iodine and selenium. Please see the pages on both of these two minerals and the article on selenium and iodine interaction. Another mineral deficiency that is associated with goiter is iron. The following study indicates that iron helps to reduce goiter size. This is excellent evidence that iron is critical for thyroid function and that iron-deficiency anemia is often an important factor in causing hypothyroidism. Eur J Endocrinol 2000 Mar;142(3):217-223

Hashitoxicosis Goiter Lymphoma Provocative Links Favorite Links Contact Me Daisy's Graves' Disease Educational Site Goiter Goiter refers to an enlarged thyroid gland. It can occur in both hypothyroidism, as thyroid cells enlarge in their efforts to trap more iodine, and in hyperthyroid as thyroid cells elongate and swell due to to their vigourous assembly line production of thyroid hormone. There are approximately 25 different types of goiter, depending on the type of pattern created when cells take up iodine and by characteristic changes in thyroid tissue. Goiters may also be nodular, having hot or cold nodules, or they may be vascular, with changes present in the veins and arteries that supply the thyroid gland. In Graves' disease, iodine distribution is even although the uptake of iodine is increased. For these reasons, goiter in Graves' disease is called "diffuse toxic goiter." Why do some goiters continue to grow? In hypothyroidism due to iodine deficiency, goiters continue to enlarge as the cells try to pull in more iodine. In autoimmune thyroid disorders, including Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis, thyroid growth immunoglobulins (TGI) are the primary cause of goiter enlargement. TGI stimulate thyroid cell growth, whereas thyroid stimulating immunoglobulins (TSI) cause excess thyroid hormone production.

Extractions: Goiters are enlarged thyroids, caused in most cases by lack of iodine (and hence we have iodized salt for this purpose). They are more common in areas where diet is lacking, and those people who have goiters in the United States generally have them for other reasons.

Extractions: (Simple, Nontoxic Diffuse, Or Nontoxic Nodular Goiter) An enlargement of the thyroid gland but without clinical or laboratory evidence of thyroid dysfunction unless the etiology is iodine deficiency (endemic [colloid] goiter). Euthyroid goiter is the most common cause of thyroid enlargement and is more frequently noted at puberty, during pregnancy, and at menopause. Numerous other causes include intrinsic thyroid hormone production defects and, in iodine-deficient underdeveloped countries, the ingestion of food goitrogens, which contain antithyroid substances that inhibit hormone synthesis. Many drugs, including aminosalicylic acid and lithium, and even iodine in large doses, may decrease the synthesis of thyroid hormone. Iodine deficiency is not present in North America but remains the most common cause of goiter worldwide. Compensatory small TSH elevations may occur, preventing hypothyroidism, but the TSH stimulation results in goiter formation. Recurrent cycles of stimulation and involution may result in nontoxic nodular goiters. However, the true etiology of most nontoxic goiters in iodine-sufficient areas is unknown.

http://www.pennhealth.com/ency/article/001178.htm

Extractions: Causes, incidence, and risk factors: There are different kinds of goiters. A simple goiter usually occurs when the thyroid gland is not able to produce enough thyroid hormone to meet the body's requirements. The thyroid gland compensates by enlarging, which usually overcomes mild deficiencies of thyroid hormone. A simple goiter may be classified as either an endemic (colloid) goiter or a sporadic (nontoxic) goiter. Endemic goiters occur within groups of people living in geographical areas with iodine-depleted soil, usually regions away from the sea coast. People in these communities might not get enough iodine in their diet. (Iodine is vital to the formation of thyroid hormone.) The modern use of iodized table salt in the U.S. prevents this deficiency; however, it is still common in central Asia and central Africa. In most cases of sporadic goiter the cause is unknown. Occasionally, certain medications such as lithium or aminoglutethimide can cause a nontoxic goiter. Hereditary factors may cause goiters. Risk factors for the development of a goiter include female sex, age over 40 years, inadequate dietary intake of iodine, residence in an endemic area, and a family history of goiter.
