Abstract: ABSTRACT 99mTc-sestamibi thyroid scintigraphy (STS) can aid in differentiating between types 1 and 2 amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT). We present a consecutive case series of 4 men (aged 56-75 years) in whom both 99mTc-STS and thyroid… read more here.

Abstract: A patient with underlying Hashimoto's thyroiditis developed amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis type 1 that was successfully treated using methimazole in combination with potassium iodide. A 35-year-old woman admitted for perinatal care of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome was given… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms24044016
Abstract: Possible triggers and genetic markers involved in pathogenesis of amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) or amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism (AIH) are currently unknown. This study aimed to analyze the association between polymorphisms in the genes involved in thyroid hormones… read more here.
