Introduction: Graves'disease (GD) is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism in pediatric populations. Recent observations at our tertiary center suggest a potential increase in pediatric GD cases following the COVID-19 pandemic. This single-center study aims to investigate the potential increase in GD cases and explore any significant differences in clinical presentation and outcomes before and after the onset of COVID-19 pandemic.<p class="abstext"...

Introduction: There has been a growing trend in the incidence of autoimmune thyroid diseases (ATD) in the pediatric group of patients. The new aspects of its pathogenesis may contribute to understand innovative methods of prevention and treatment. Regulatory B cells (Breg) allow the maintenance of immune homeostasis by neutralizing the negative reactions of effector cells. Attention has been recently paid also to the new environmental factor like zinc and its ...

Papillary thyroid cancer in a teenager with thyroid hormone resistance syndrome: features of postoperative management.

Mikhalina Sofia , Kalinchenko Natalia , Kolodkina Anna

Introduction: In rare cases, patients with thyroid hormone resistance syndrome may develop papillary thyroid cancer. There are only two reported cases of tumor development in children with this condition. Postoperative therapy is a difficult task, due to the persistent increase of thyrotropin (TSH) levels while receiving monotherapy with sodium levothyroxine, and the use of the drug in high doses leads to the development of thyrotoxicosis symptoms. Despite the...

Introduction and Purpose: Differentiated thyroid cancer in children is rare. However, its incidence has increased recently. It differs from adult thyroid cancer in terms of clinical, molecular and pathologic features. Pediatric patients present with advanced disease at the time of diagnosis. They have an excellent prognosis and a 5-year survival rate that reaches 100%. The aim of this study was to record and statistically analyze data from children diagnosed w...

Response to TRIAC therapy in a child with Resistance to Thyroid Hormone beta and behavioural abnormalities

Ramakrishnan Anand , Jarvis Charlotte , Thomas Jay , Armitage Suzanne , Lyons Greta , Halsall David , Chatterjee Krishna , Ramakrishnan Renuka

Introduction: Resistance to thyroid hormone beta, a rare disorder due to mutation in thyroid hormone receptor β, results in raised thyroid hormones with non-suppressed TSH and variable symptoms. Manifestations of RTHb in childhood include failure to thrive, propensity to ENT infections and behavioural abnormalities including ADHD. We report biochemical and behavioural responses to therapy with triiodothyroacetic acid (TRIAC), a centrally-acting thyroid ho...

Congenital autoimmune thyreoiditis with hypothyroidism: first expression of a STAT-3-associated multisystemic disease with further severe autoimmune manifestations

Ververidou Ourania , Lainka Elke , Kampmann Kristina , Steindor Nora , Schäfer Miriam , Manka Eva , Korsch Eckhard , Kiewert Cordula

Introduction: Gain-of-function mutations in the STAT-3-Gene are associated with multisystemic autoimmune disease. The spectrum of disorders described in this context is highly variable and includes lymphoproliferative disease and (poly-) autoimmune endocrinopathies.Case History: A three-year-old boy was admitted with acute liver failure of unknown cause, necessitating a liver transplant. His medical history included cong...

Introduction: Numerous genetic defects have been identified in relation to congenital hypothyroidism (CH). In recent years, with the increased accessibility of molecular genetic analysis, CH etiology is better understood. We evaluated patients followed with a diagnosis of CH who were diagnosed using next-generation sequencing analysis.Methods: The study included 19 cases (10 females,52.6%). Patients with thyroid gland <e...
