About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Thyroid Gland Diseases in Children" by Riga Olena.

This medical PowerPoint presentation talks about thyroid gland diseases in children.

The thyroid gland, located in the neck, produces hormones that play a crucial role in regulating metabolism, growth, and development in the body. In children, thyroid gland diseases can have significant impacts on growth and development. Some of the common thyroid gland diseases that can affect children include Congenital hypothyroidism, Hyperthyroidism, Hypothyroidism, Thyroid nodules, and Thyroid cancer, etc.

Excretion of iodine ( in urine) 100-200 μg/l – normal level 201-299 μg/l – increase level > 300 μg/l - increase of intake in food Deficiency: < 20 μg/l – severe 20-49 μg/l - moderate 50-99 μg/l - mild
Slide 5-

The steps of thyroid hormone synthesis Monoiodotyrosin (MIT) Diiodotyrosin (DIT) 1 molecula MIT + 2 DIT → thyroxin T4 1 molecula MIT + 1 DIT → triiodothyroxinT3 Under thyroperoxidase control

Peripheral conversation T3 from T4 Both T4 and T3 circulate in plasma bound to the plasma thyroid hormone-binding protein (TBP) Thyroxine-binding globulin. Thyroid produces only 8 μg of T4 and 4 μg T3 daily. Serum T3 concentration is usually low because of reduced conversation from T4.
Slide 8-

The factors that destroyed of conversation T4→T3 systemic disease starvation, anorexia surgical intervention newborn period gerontological period glucocorticosteroids β-adrenoblocks amiodarone (cordaron) propylthyouracil
Slide 9-

Action of thyroid hormones Genomic effects: the interaction of TH and its receptors is believed to precede other cellular events of messenger RNA and specific protein synthesis
Slide 10-

Action of thyroid hormones Maturation of the CNS: lack of TH in the first year or two results in decreased brain cell size and number. Myelinization of axons is retarded leading to abnormalities and dendritic arborization
Slide 11-

Action of thyroid hormones Maturation of the skeletal and dental system Maintenance of oxidative metabolism and heart production Control of temperature production TH differentiates all tissues and organs
Slide 12-

Diagnostic of Thyroid gland disease Visual & palpating method Investigation of thyroid function (basal level of freeT3 ,freeT4) Functional tests (TSH) USG, radiography, scanning, etc. Biopsia
Slide 13-

Diagnostic of Thyroid gland disease Serological tests: *Markers of autoimmune disease (antibodies to thyroglobulin, thyroperoxidase, to TSH-receptors) *Markers of cancer (thyroglobulin, calcitonin)
Slide 14-

Goiter WHO (1994) 0 – goiter is absent I – goiter isn’t visualized, but it’s size less than distal phalanx of thumb II – goiter is palpated & visualized
Slide 15-

Functional condition of Thyroid influence may be as Euthyroidism Hypothyroidism hyperthyroidism
Slide 16-

Нypothyroidism Hypothyroidism - syndrome with particular or total deficiency T3 and T4 or theirs acts to target cells
Slide 17-

Classification of hypothyroidism Disturbances PRIMARY - defects of biosynthesis of T3, T4 due to pathology of thyroid gland SECONDARY - decreasing T3, T4 due to deficiency of TSH (pituitary) or TRH (hypothalamus) or Resistance of receptors for T3, T4
Slide 18-

Classification of hypothyroidism Onset Congenital Acquired (rare)
Slide 19-

Classification of hypothyroidism Clinic & biologic data Latent (subclinical) T3 -N, T4 –N, TSH > 10 mU/l Manifestation of disease due to ↓ T4 (at first) & ↓ T3 Complicate
Slide 20-

ETIOLOGY OF CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROIDISM Primary hypothyroidism Thyroid dysgenesis (aplasia, hypoplasia, or ectopic gland) Inborn error of thyroid hormone synthesis, secretion, or utilization Maternal goitrogen ingestion or radioactive iodine treatment Iodine deficiency (endemic goiter) Autoimmune thyroiditis
Slide 21-

ETIOLOGY OF CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROIDISM (c’d) Hypothalamic or pituitary hypothyroidism Pituitary aplasia Septo-optic dysplasia PIT1 mutation (deficiency TSH, GH, Prol PROP-1 mutation (deficiency TSH, GH, Prol,Lh,FSH,ACTH) Thyrotropin unresponsiveness
Slide 22-

SYMPTOMS OF CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROIDISM There is a tendency towards prolonged gestation with 1/3 of pregnancies lasting 42 weeks or more Prolonged jaundice Lethargy Constipation Feeding problems Cold to touch
Slide 23-

SIGNS OF CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROIDISM Skin mottling and Dry skin Umbilical hernia and Distended abdomen Jaundice Macroglossia Large fontanels Wide sutures Hoarse cry Muscle Hypotonia Slow reflexes
Slide 24-

Minority of CH Puffy myxedematous face Depressed nasal bridge with hypertelorism Large protruding tongue with an open mouth Cold, motted skin Short neck Palpebral fissures are narrow Short fingers Fat deposits between neck and shoulders Hiar is coarse, brittle and scanty Hiarline reaches far down on the forehead

DIAGNOSTIC STUDIES IN HYPOTHYROIDISM Thyroid scan – 99mTc or 123 IT3 resin uptake Bone age TSH !!! Free T4 – if hypothalamic- pituitary hypothyroidism suspected TBG – if TBG deficiency suspected Anti-thyroid antibodies – if history of maternal thyroiditis
Slide 27-

Biochemical hallmarks of CH Low serum T4 and T3 with evaluated TSH (primary) T3 –normal, T4 ↓- severe or longstanding T4 –normal but TSH is elevated – compensative CH, transient or subclinical T4↓ but TSH normal- congenital TBG-deficiency or hypothalamic-pituitary hypothyrodism
Slide 28-

Biochemical hallmarks of CH Other: Elevated serum cholesterol Elevated creatinphosphokinase Hyponatriemia
Slide 29-

Instrumental data Slightly decrease heart rate and amplitude of R wave (ECG) Increase projection period, left ventricular wall diameter, decrease LV chamber size and decrease cardiac output (EchoCG) Low-amplitude diffuse slowing (EEG)
Slide 30-

Treatment L-thyroxin Preterm 8 – 10 μg/kg 0-3 mo 10 – 15 μg/kg 3-6 mo 8 – 10 μg/kg 6-12 mo 6 – 8 μg/kg 1-3 years 4 – 6 μg/kg 3-10 years 3 – 4 μg/kg 10-15 years 2 – 4 μg/kg > 15 years 2 – 3 μg/kg

Slide 32-

ETIOLOGY OF ACQUIRED HYPOTHYROIDISM (c’d) Hypothalamic or pituitary disease Congenital thyroid disorders, e.g., ectopia, may not decompensate until later childhood and thus may appear acquired Peripheral resistance to thyroid hormones, including receptor defects Jatrogenic (propylthiouracil, methimazole, iodides, lithium,amiodarone) Hemangiomas of the liver
