    Effect of high-dose intravenous glucocorticoid therapy on serum thyroid hormone concentrations in type 2 amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis: an exploratory study

    Amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) is a potentially life-threatening condition, which poses challenging diagnostic and therapeutic problems [ 1 , 2 ]. While Type 1 AIT is a true hyperthyroidism driven by amiodarone-associated iodine load [ 3 …

    Early surgery: a favorable prognosticator in amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis—a single-center experience with 53 cases

    Fewer than 100 cases of amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) managed surgically have been reported worldwide. This study aims to assess the outcome of thyroidectomy under general anesthesia in a relatively large case series. A retrospective …

  4. Salvage total thyroidectomy for amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis in a SARS-CoV-2 positive patient: results of the viral genome research on the pathology sample of this destructive thyroiditis

    SARS-CoV-2 infection has emerged as an important cause of mortality, and the underlying comorbidities displayed by our patient are well-known risk factors for a worse clinical outcome [ 5 – 8 ]. However, AIT mortality risk in case of worsening …

    The presence of anti-thyroglobulin (TgAb) and/or anti-thyroperoxidase antibodies (TPOAb) does not exclude the diagnosis of type 2 amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis

    Amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) develops in about 15 % of patients under amiodarone therapy [ 1 , 2 ]. Two main forms of AIT can occur: type 1 is an iodine-induced hyperthyroidism, occurring in patients with underlying functional thyroid …

    Iopanoic acid rapidly controls Type I amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis prior to thyroidectomy

    Amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) may develop either in apparently normal thyroid glands (Type II AIT) or in the presence of sub-clinical thyroid abnormalities (either autonomous goiter or latent Graves’ disease; Type I AIT). Mixed forms …

    Long-term outcome of thyroid function after amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis, as compared to subacute thyroiditis

    Background: Two main forms of amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) exist: type 1 AIT is a condition of true hyperthyroidism developing in patients with pre-existing thyroid disorders, and usually requires thyroid ablative treatment. On the …

    Thyroid color flow doppler sonography and radioiodine uptake in 55 consecutive patients with amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis

    Amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) is a life-threatening condition, the appropriate management of which is achieved by identifying its different subtypes. Type 1 AIT develops in patients with underlying thyroid abnormalities and is believed …

    Continuation of Amiodarone Therapy Despite Type II Amiodarone-Induced Thyrotoxicosis

    Background: Amiodarone is a powerful antiarrhythmic drug; however, its use may be complicated by thyrotoxicosis. When this occurs, clinicians must balance the continuation of amiodarone for antiarrhythmic purposes, and the discontinuation of …

    Successful surgical treatment of refractory amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis causing tachycardiomyopathy

    Amiodarone is a well-established pharmacologic therapy used for several types of tachyarrhythmia. However, it is associated with potential adverse effects on thyroid function due to its high iodine concentration. Amiodaroneinduced thyrotoxicosis

    A fatal case of recurrent amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis after percutaneous tracheotomy: a case report

    Amiodarone is a benzofuranic-derivative iodine-rich drug widely used for the treatment of tachyarrhythmias. In 14–18% of amiodarone-treated patients, there is overt thyroid dysfunction, either amiodarone-induced-thyrotoxicosis (AIT) or …
