Overview
Toxic multinodular goiter is classified into three types- Primary, secondary, teritiary hyperthyroidism.
Classification
Based on the origin of the abnormality
Based on the origin of the abnormality the lesions may be classified into primary, secondary, and tertiary hyperthyroidism.[1]
| According to the origin of the abnormality | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Primary hyperthyroidism | Secondary hyperthyroidism | Tertiary hyperthyroidism | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| • Grave’s disease • Toxic thyroid nodule • Thyroid adenoma • Multinodular goiter | • Pituitary adenoma • Intracranial tumors pressing pituitary gland | • Intracranial tumors or masses involving hypothalamus | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Based on the iodine uptake
Based on the results of iodine uptake, thyroid disorders may be classified into high uptake, high or normal uptake, and low uptake.[2]
| According to iodine uptake | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| High uptake | High or normal uptake | Low uptake | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| • Toxic multinodular goiter • Graves' disease • Toxic thyroid adenoma | • Iodine caused hyperthyroidism • Hashitoxicosis • Germ cell tumors (choriocarcinoma in males and testicular germ cell tumors) • Pituitary TSH producing adenoma | • Subacute thyroiditis • Hyperthyroidism due to ectopic thyroid tissue • Factitious thyrotoxicosis • Struma ovarii • Painless thyroiditis • Amiodarone induced thyroiditis-Type 1 • Amiodarone induced thyroiditis-Type 2 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
