dc.descriptionAlthough autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) is frequent in Turner's syndrome (TS), follow-up studies are scant, and there are none regarding subclinical thyroiditis. We investigated thyroid function and morphology in 17 patients with TS (mean age 14.6 years) with transient and asymptomatic variations of TSH and/or thyroid hormones. Our 2-year follow-up included measurements of TSH, free T(4), T(3) and TPO and Tg antibodies, ultrasound (US) (first and last evaluations) and scintigraphy (first evaluation). Thyroid volume was evaluated relative to the patients' stature. Fourteen had abnormal hormones, including four with hypothyroidism and one with hyperthyroidism, ten had positive antibodies, and all had abnormalities on US; uptake was normal in 14/16. Abnormal hormones were independent of antibodies, number of US findings, age, time of disease and volume. At the end of the follow-up, antibodies were associated with a high number of abnormal US features, particularly heterogeneous texture. Our results indicate that recurring thyroid hormone variations in TS are due to chronic AITD.
