Abnormalities of thyroid function rival diabetes mellitus in terms of prevalence and can affect any system in the body. In the UK and North America it is estimated that palpable thyroid nodules are present in 1 in 20 of the population, and in the UK alone 20,000 tests are carried out each year in clinical chemistry laboratories. Thus, all doctors can expect to encounter thyroid disease in one form or another. Thyroid disorders are generally very responsive to treatment, but there are traps for the unwary - not least because of the frequent atypical presentations and the widespread prevalence of subclinical disease.

The text, which is comprehensively illustrated to make core clinical information easily accessible, is a concise and practical guide for all who manage patients with these common conditions. • A concise guide to the recognition of thyroid disorders and the selection of appropriate thyroid function tests • Provides expert advice on when to test, when to treat and when to refer, ensuring rapid initiation of appropriate therapy • Highlights the particular challenges posed by thyroid disease during pregnancy • Covers the management of thyroid eye conditions • Sound, dependable advice for the healthcare team and patient in coping with these common conditions Contents: • Glossary • Introduction • Thyroid physiology and function tests • Hyperthyroidism: etiology and presentation • Hyperthyroidism: diagnosis and management • Hypothyroidism: etiology and presentation • Hypothyroidism: diagnosis and management • Pregnancy and the thyroid • Thyroid nodules and thyroid cancer

The thyroid disorders are one of the most common and exciting areas of endocrinology. Hypothyroidism, multinodular goiter, hyperthyroidism and thyroid cancer are only few of the several implications that the thyroid disorders have in health. In fact, thyroid hormones regulate not only metabolism process, but also many other molecular and physiological systems. From this point of view, hyperthyroidism complications are a good example of the significance of thyroid hormone actions. This book aims to provide a general view of thyroid disorders, and a deeper explanation of hyperthyroidism and its complications and impact in health.
