Pathology of spontaneous myxedema in the aged

Autopsy findings are reported in 29 cases of myxedema observed in aged patients. In 7 cases the hypothyroidism was due to a primary destructive lesion of the pituitary gland. In 22 cases the hypothyroidism was related to an atrophic cirrhosis of the thyroid, the preclinical stages of which have been investigated.SCOPUS: cp.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

Hypothyroidism and coronary heart disease

In contrast to general opinion, hypothyroidism is not an infrequent disease: it affects 1.5% of the Western populations and 1/3 of the cases remain undiagnosed. Latent hypothyroidism, easily detected by the assay of circulating thyroid antibodies and graded by the estimation of serum TSH, is present in a further 3 to 5 per cent of the general population. Whereas overt hypothyroidism is a definite cause of vascular damage, the role of subclinical hypothyroidism as a risk factor of CHD remains debatable Several independent studies suggest that the importance of this role may depend on the presence or absence of other risk factors. Practically latent hypothyroidism should be looked for in all cases of unexplained hyperlipidaemia and in all women over the age of 50. In all cases with biological signs of grade III AAT, careful exploration of the cardiovascular state should be considered before substitutive therapy is started.SCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

HYPOTHYROIDIE LATENTE ET MALADIE DES CORONAIRES

Asymptomatic autoimmune thyroiditis entails important iodine metabolism alterations: a possible cause of its initiation and progress into thyroid atrophy and overt myxoedema. Recent studies suggest that vascular damage may develop during the asymptomatic grades of the process. Pathogenic mechanisms remain doubtful and no rational therapeutic scheme can be proposed, except the prevention of myxoedema in the high-risk cases.SCOPUS: NotDefined.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
