ABSTRACT
Objective: Of all malignant cancers, differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) has the most rapidly increasing incidence rate in both women and men. Cardiac complications can occur due to the hypothyroidism occurred before radioactive iodine131 whole-body scan (I131-WBS). Fifteen days after thyroid hormone treatment withdrawal, TSH levels were measured and the cases over 50 mU/L are accepted as severe acute hypothyroidism. The purpose of this study was to investigate, whether severe acute hypothyroidism before treatment with the I131-WBS caused any myocardial damage in patients with DTC during postablative follow-up period.
Material and Method: Forty-eight patients with DTC were recruited to the study. Twenty-four patients were assigned to the subclinical hyperthyroidism (SH) and euthyroid subgroups each. Blood samples were collected from patients under levothyroxine (LT4) treatment 15 days after cessation of thyroid hormone therapy, after the occurrence of acute severe hypothyroidism before I131-WBS blood samples were collected second time. Serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI) were measured by automated electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.
Results: No significant difference was detected (p>0.05) between cTnI values measured under LT4 treatment SH and euthyroid subgroups. Within each subgroup, cTnI values under LT4 treatment and in the hypothyroid condition showed no significant either (p>0.05).
Conclusion: We concluded that severe acute hypothyroidism observed before I131-WBS in patients with DTC may not cause myocardial damage. Therefore, cTnI may still be a reliable marker in differential diagnosis in patients with severe acute hypothyroidism mimicking acute coronary syndrome.
