[Thyroid function in chronic liver diseases in an endemic region].
Iodine absorptive thyroid function, the levels of T3, T4 and TSH, and thyroid scanning were determined and performed in 132 patients with chronic liver diseases. The results of the investigation were compared with those of the control group. All patients lived in a goiter-endemic area with higher prevalence of liver diseases. Functional thyroid disorders were revealed in all the patients: hypofunction in 85.6%, hyperfunction in 14.4%. Structural and anatomic thyroid changes were detected in 91.6%. The results obtained should be taken into account during therapy of patients with chronic liver diseases.
