Overview

Differentiating Graves' disease from other Diseases

Disease Findings
Hashitoxicosis It is autoimmune thyroid disease who initially present with hyperthyroidism and a high radioiodine uptake caused by TSH-receptor antibodies similar to Graves' disease followed by the development of hypothyroidism due to infiltration of thyroid gland with lymphocytes and resultant autoimmune-mediated destruction of thyroid tissue similar to chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis.[1]
Toxic adenoma and toxic multinodular goiter Toxic adenoma and toxic multinodular goiter are result of focal/diffuse hyperplasia of thyroid follicular cells independent to TSH regulation. Finding single or multiple nodules in physical examination or thyroid scan.[2]
Iodine-induced hyperthyroidism It is uncommon but, can develop after an iodine load, such as administration of contrast agents used for angiography or computed tomography (CT) or iodine-rich drugs such as amiodarone.
Trophoblastic disease and germ cell tumors Present with acute severe unilateral lower quadrant abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, tender adnexal mass palpated in 90%, ultrasound is diagnostic.[3]
Thyroiditis
  • Direct chemical toxicity with inflammation
  • Radiation thyroiditis
  • Drugs that interfere with the immune system
  • Lithium
  • Palpation thyroiditis
Presents with localized abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Hypovolemic shock may be present; abdominal tenderness and guarding are physical exam findings, ultrasound is diagnostic.[3]
Endometriosis Present with cyclic pain that is exacerbated by onset of menses and during the luteal phase; dyspareuni, transvaginal ultrasound is suggestive, laparascopic exploration is diagnostic.[3]
Diverticulitis Present with bowel symptoms in older women
Acute cystitis Features with increased frequency and urgency, dysuria, and suprapubic pain.[4][5]
