Prolactinoma
|
MOST COMMON tumor of pituitary
amenorrhea/oligomenorrhea, impotence, galactorea, gynocomasteam visual complaints (bc this is a macroadenoma so its so big it pushed on the optic chiasm) |
|
Cushing's Dz
|
due to ant. pituitary tumor
overproduce ACTH over produce cortisol = steroid man |
|
Acromegaly
|
due to ant pituitary adenoma that over produced Growth Hormone AFTER adolescence
outgrow shoes, gloves & hats, dev course facial features |
|
Gigantism
|
due to ant pituitary adenoma that over produced Growth Hormone PRIOR to puberty
tall and large but proportional |
|
PCOS
|
over produced LH!
NOT assoc. w/ pituitary adenoma acne, hirsutism, infertility LH:FSH ratio is 2:1 or more |
|
Menopause
|
ovarian failure
no estrogen or progesterone = no negative feedback so high FSH FSH:LH ratio is 2:1 hot flashes and osteoporosis |
|
SIADH
|
excess ADH produced by posterior pituitary
excess water reabsorption from the kidney = hyponatremia, cerebral edema with maybe hypertension |
|
What else can produce high SIADH?
|
Small cell lung cancer
head trauma-damage to hypothalamus or post. pituitary |
|
Panhypopituitarism aka pituitary cachexia or simmonds dz
|
1-pituitary tumor-nonfunctional
2-postpartum pituitary necrosis-Sheehan's Syndrome decreased TSH, GH, ACTH, LH and FSH |
|
Pituitary Dwarfism
|
congenital def in Growth hormone
short and proportionately small |
|
Diabetes Insipidus (central)
|
caused by ADH def secondary to decreased secretion by the posterior pituitary-usually head trauma wherein the post. pituitary or hypothalamus are damaged
polyuria & polydipsia *nephrogenic DI is due to lack of kidney response to ADH but cause similar symptoms |
|
Conn's Syndrome
|
adrenal adenoma that overproduces aldosterone
too much aldosterone=hypernatremia=severe HTN (headache) & hypokalemia->muscle weakness |
|
Cushing's Syndrome
|
due to ANY cause for increased glucocorticoids
screen: 24 hour urine test bc levels flucuate throughout the day confirm:dexamethasone suppression test |
|
5 caused of Cushings Syndrome
|
1-adrenal adenoma
2-adrenal carcinoma 3-Cushing's Dz-pit ACTH producing adenoma 4-small cell lung cancer-paraneoplastic production of ACTH 5-prolonged use of glucocorticoids-steroids |
|
Pheochromocytoma
|
excess NE +/- Epi secretion ( tumo rof the adrenal medulla)
sporadic HTN,paroxysmal hyperhidrosis, and episodic aggressive behavior changes Best screen:24 hour urinary VMA (also use 24 hr metanephrines and normetanepthrines or 24 hr catacholamines |
|
Neuroblastoma
|
malignant tumor of adrenal gland or sympathetic ganglia or both produces excess norepi
neural crest in origin peak age <3 yo presenting sign-enlarging abdomen & HTN can occur. later symptoms are due to metastisis |
|
Addison's Dz
|
autoimmune but can be bc invasion of mycobacterium tuberculosis or histoplasma capsulatum
decreased aldosterone production=excess Na loss through kidney=hypotension hyperkalemia=muscles weakness and cardiac arrhythmias decreased neg feedback on ant pit =over produce POMC=increase ACTH and MSH(why JKF so tan bc excess melanin) |
|
Graves Dz (diffuse toxic goiter)
|
young females
MOST COMMON cause of HTN in US ANTI-TSH antibodies exopthalmos, dermopathy (pre tibial fat pad) 1st line management: radioablation with sodium iodine |
|
Plummers Dz (nodular toxic goiter)
|
post menopausal women, multiparous females-risk increased with degree of parity (aka more kids higher risk)
due to; reactivation of subsequent hyperactivity of isolated nests of cells within the thyroid gland often no HYPERthyroid symp just recurrent fatigue, tired & malaise-bc rest of the gland is inadequately stimulated due to to resulting low TSH levels |
|
Diffuse Simple Goiter (iodine def)
|
any age-in regions of world iwth no iodized salt or with out crustaceans
hypothyroid symptoms treat:iodine |
|
Hashimotos ThryoidItis
|
t cell disorder with ANTI-MICROSOMAL antiboides-gradually and progressively destruct the gland
constipation, fatigue,dry skin, coarse hair, swollen legs, cold intolerence, weight gain treat: levothyroxine |
|
Riedels (FIbrous) Thyroiditis
|
elderly
chronic use of migrain meds -weird fibrosis and bc nonfunctional treat:levothyroxine |
|

|
probably viral & usually follows a viral URI
Hyperthyroid symptoms followed by hyporthyroid symptoms transient and temporary NSAIDS |
|
Sick Euthyroid Syndromes
|
due to sever illness, physical trauma, physiologic stress
treat the underlying cause many variants but all have NORMAL TSH |
|
follicular adenoma
|
single, palpable, thyroid nodule
female >45 y/o hyperthyroid signs |
|
Carcinomas of thyroid
|
females>males
painless mass euthryoid-NORMAL thyroid levels cold nodules-radioactive iodine injected and nodule shows no activity |
|
4 types of thyroid carcinoma
|
Papillary
Follicular Ananplastic Medularry |
|
Papillary CA
|
Most common and best pronosis so yay :)
females in their 20's fingerlike projections & ground glass appearance of nuclei assoc w/ prior radiotherapy of the neck |
|
Follicular CA
|
middle aged
poorer prognosis |
|
Anaplastic CA
|
elderly
VERY aggressive & very poor prognosis |
|
Medullary CA
|
Late middle aged/ early elderly
tumor of parafollicular C cells (part of the MEDULLA of the thryoid gland) C cells make calcitonin (encourage Ca deposition in the bone) tumor makes high calcitonin=hypocalcemia |
|
5 roles of Parathyroid hormone
|
1-activate osteoclasts-increasing serum Ca
2-Increase renal tubular re-absorption of Ca=increase serum Ca 3-Increase Vit D conversion to 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D in kidneys-increase serum calcium & phosphorous 4-increase renal phosphate excretion-DECREASE serum phosphate-lose massive amts by this 5-increase GI absorption of Ca=increase serum Ca |
|
Primary hyperparathyroidism
|
due to pathology of the parathyroid gand
hi PTH hi Ca lo PO4 |
|
Secondary hyperparathyroidism
|
due to low calcium with resulting response of activity by parathyroid gland
ex:Chronic renal failure-so kidneys will not reabsorb CA=loss Ca in urine= PTH increased in response so hi PTH lo Ca-bc kidney failed hi PO4-bc kidney failed |
|
Hypoparathyroidism
|
lack of parathryoid activity
ex: accidental parathyroid removal with thyroidectomy lo PTH--> lo Ca & Hi PO4 |
|
Pseudohypoparathyroidism
|
PTH receptors are non functional so parathyroids ar enormal but tissues can't respond
inherited rather than acquired hi PTH but no respone so lo Ca & lo PO4 several types: 1a is also known as Albright's -features: short stature, obesity, and short hand bones |
|
Pseudopseudohypoparathryoidism
|
AD but INTERESTING BC-inherit gene from DAD get this but inherit gene from mom and get pseudohypoparathhyroidism type 1A
PTH receptors are fine but 2nd messanger system is defective= response to PTH slow but possible-Ca and PO4 equilibrate slowly features: short stature, obesity, and short hand bones |
|

|
Type 1 DM
|
not common- ANTI ISLET CELL Ab destroy beta islet cells
juvenile onset-lean body-no insulin KETOACIDOSIS RISK-lack of insulin + stress = extreme over activation of HSL=explosive lipolysis and consequent ketoacidosis HLA DR3 & DR4 |
|
Type 11 DM
|
very common & growing in kids
hypoosmolar nonketotic coma risk-glucose levels reach super high levels and pull water into vasculature thereby dessicating (drying out) the brain = coma women>men No HLA connection or autoantibodies OBESE |
|
Chronic Complications of DM
|
neuropathy, atheroscleroiss (MI, PVD, stoke, AAA, mesenteric ichemia) retinopathy, nephropathy
|
|
Gestational Diabetes
|
Beta cell reserve is inadequate for increased demands of preggo
exacerbated by human placental lactogen, product of the placenta which causes mild insuline resistance screen: Glucola test in 27-28 weeks |
|
MODY-maturity onset diabetes of the young
|
glucokinase defect-prevents cells from being able adequately phosphorylate the glucose that is made available to them=glucose cannot be used & released back into serum =HYPERGLYCEMIA
