Abstract
|
|
|
A thyroid suppression test was carried out on 5 cases of normal subjects and 8 cases of goitrous patients, utilizing 3 grains of desiccated thyroid.
The thyroid uptake following 2 weeks´ treatment with 3 grains of desiccated thyroid was below.20 % in 4 cases out of 5 normal subjects, and in one case the uptake was 21.4%. On contrary, the thyroid uptake following 2 weeks´ treatment of 3 grains of desiccated thyroid did not drop below 35 % in all 5 cases of hyperthyroidism. Significant drop in the uptake after 2 weeks´ treatment of 3 grains of desiccated thyroid was seen in 4 cases out of 5 euthyroid goitrous patients, including 2 cases of familial goiter due to organification defects, and in remaining one case no remarkable drop was seen.
