title: Cutaneous manifestations of thyroid disease.
abstract: Cutaneous manifestations of thyroid disease are protean in nature and affect all age groups. This review focuses on normal thyroid gland physiology, specific cutaneous/thyroid lesions such as the thyroglossal duct cyst and metastatic thyroid malignancies, nonspecific cutaneous alterations of the hyperthyroid and hypothyroid states, and the numerous associations of thyroid disease with other cutaneous and/or systemic disorders.
