title: [Current aspects in the diagnosis and therapy of hypothyroidism].
abstract: Also at present hypothyroidism is frequently not recognised, especially its discrete forms of the course should be more included in differential-diagnostic considerations. Decisive is the clinical anamnestic suspicion which, after exhaustion of the laboratory-diagnostic possibilities, will justify the application of probatory therapy, even on a relatively large scale. This disease deserves secial regard, taking into consideration its beneficial and well practicable therapeutic influencibility and, on the other hand, its sever prognostic consequences to the subject in case of therapeutic neglect. The problems of therapy are not so much consisting in the occurrence of side-effects or in a non-optimal choice of drugs, but the more in a delayed onset, low dosage or interruption of the therapy.
