Resumen

RESUMEN

Se realizó una revisión narrativa rigurosa de la literatura inglesa y en español sobre diferentes aspectos de la Enfermedad de Graves-Basedow, causa de cerca del 80% de todos los casos de hipertiroidismo. Esta patología –parte de la llamada “enfermedad tiroidea autoinmune”- se produce como consecuencia de la presencia de anticuerpos circulantes que se unen y activan al receptor de tirotropina, desencadenándose generalmente el hipertiroidismo en asociación con un estrés agudo. En este artículo describimos la metodología usada para elaborar un estado del arte del bocio difuso tóxico presente en adultos, en relación con sus antecedentes históricos, fisiopatología y diagnóstico, tanto semiológico como imagenológico, patológico y por laboratorio. Los aspectos –tanto del manejo de hipertiroidismo como el de problemas especiales- son motivo de otra publicación.

PHYSIOPATHOLOGY AND DIAGNOSIS OF GRAVES-BASEDOW´S HYPERTHYROIDISMABSTRACT

A strict narrative review of english and spanish literature on different aspects concerning Graves- Basedow´s Disease –cause of about 80% of cases of hyperthyroidism- was carried out. This is one of the pathologies seen in the so-called “autoimmune thyroid disease”, it is associated with presence of thyrotropin-receptor antibodies and is usually triggered by an acute stressful event. We describe the methodology used to structure this State-of-the Art paper of diffuse toxic goiter seen in adult patients, in relation to historical information, physiopathology and diagnosis of Graves-Basedow´s Disease, either physical or by imagenology, pathology and laboratory. Management of hyperthyroidism and of some special associated problems is matter of discussion in another publication.

Key words: Hyperthyroidism, goiter, TSH, ophtalmopathy, dermopathy, radioactive iodine, thyonamides, thyroid.
