______is genetic disorder which one or more of the endocrine glands have too much tissue or form a tumor
MEN 1
(Currently, treatment options include surgical removal of the tumor, drug therapy, and radiation therapy of the pituitary)
syndrome is caused by mosaic mutations (not all the DNA in all the cells are mutated) in the DNA. This disease is not inherited.Marked by premature puberty in girls. Fibrous dysplasia (scarlike tissue) in bones, making very fragile. Cafe au laite spots.
McCune -Albright Currently, treatment options include surgical removal of the tumor, drug therapy, and radiation therapy of the pituitary
________results from a pituitary adenoma (tumor). Tumor cells keep growing and producing massive amounts of GH and the body tissues gradually enlarge. Severe disfigurement. Die young.
Acromegaly (Andre the Giant, Carel Struycken from Adams family..Lurch,)
Tumor in or near nervous system, mostly inherited. 30% of the time the disease just pops up. Affects one out of every 3-4,000 people.
Cafe au lait spots
deformities of bones
Neurofibromatoses 1 (NF1)
Tumor on both sides of Vestibulocochlear Nerve (VIII). If it spreads big enough it reaches pituitary.
Suffer tenitis (ringing in ears)
Poor Balance
Vertigo
Severe Headaches
Facial Pain and Numbness

Genetic Disorder
Syphilis
Results from a lack or reduced amount of ADH being released
Central Diabetes Insipidis CDI

.
Severely mentally retarded.
Muscle atrophy
impaired hearing
Growth stunted
Cretinism
No Iodine in diet stunts growth. Without Iodine you can't form T3 and T4
high metabolic rate
have to eat all the time or extreme wt loss
enlarged thyroid gland & goiters
high heart rate
high body temp
if they don't eat enough or no meds they will develop EXOPHTHALMOS (bug eyes)
Hyperthyroidism-
T3, T4 overabundance
everything speeds up
Thyroid doesn't work
low metabolism
no apetite, still gain weight
low body temp
slow heart rate
***Children who develop this will have abnormal bone growth- same as cretinism.
Hypothyroidism
everything slows down
not enough T3 T4
children -cretinism
Too much CALCIUM, lack of Calcitonin. Constipation, nausea, decreased appetite, abdominal pains, kidney stones (ca solidifies), polyuria(frequent urination), frequent thirst, confusion/dementia, depression fragile bones(osteoclasts overwork), shock can lead to death
Hypercalcemia

polyuria/frequent thirst/dementia/fragile bones
Too little CALCIUM, too much Calcitonin.
Paresthesia (numbness, tingling on skin)
Petechia (rash localized on skin)
Seizures
Cardiac Arrhythmia
Bronchospasm (tubes in lungs spasm, close up, can cause dysphagia)
Dysphagia (trouble swallowing)
Tetany(muscles lock up for no reason)
Hypocalcemia

Petechia/Parathesis/Tetany/Brochsasm/Dysphasia
Parathyroid Hypertrophy-(Enlargement of organ), overproduction of PTH.
Symptoms:
Tired , depressed, fractures, polyurea
cataracts
muscle aches
stupor
coma can lead to death
Hyperparathyoidism- Primary
Parathyroid hypertrophy/overproduction of PTH
Parathyroid glands produce Too much PTH because Calcium levels too low. Parathyroid overworked. Low Calcium -Symptoms:
Tired , depressed, fractures, polyurea
cataracts
muscle aches
stupor
coma can lead to death
Hyperparathyoidism-Secondary
parathyroid overworked/low Ca
People have kidney problems because of over-excretion of calcium. Not resorbing.
CASR(Ca sensing receptor)-overproduce PTH-brittle bones
(hintPTH helps kidney resorbtion!!) Symptoms:
Tired , depressed, fractures, polyurea
cataracts
muscle aches
stupor
coma can lead to death
Hyperparathyroidism-Tertiary

over-excretion of Ca
NOT RESORBING!!
By the time you know you have Addison's you have to take medicine, no choice
Addison's crisis
Low Cortisol Level. One in 100. 70% gradual destruction of adrenal cortex by immune system. Chronic characteristics. You don't know you have it. Gradual.
Symptoms: Fatigue, muscle weakness, loss of appetite, nausea/vomiting/diarrhea, Low BP, hyper-pigmentation, irritability, depression, craving salty foods, low blood sugar
Addison's /Hypocortisolism

chronic symptoms/gradual/1-100
have to take artificial cortisol
