If abnormal thyroid function indices have been reported in patients with nephrotic syndrome, hypothyroidism is exceptional.
We report three adult patients (1, 2, 3) with hypothyroidism associated with nephrotic syndrome (minimal change glomerulonephritis [1], idiopathic membranous nephropathy stage I [2], stage II [3]). Glomerulopathy treatment and thyroid hormone replacement therapy were both initiated. Low replacement (1, 2) was sufficient when proteinuria decreased. It was higher when nephrotic syndrome was uncontrolled (3).
Excessive thyroxine-binding protein and thyroxine urinary loss generate low rate of free thyroxine and elevated TSH. Systematic thyroid hormonal test is necessary if nephrotic syndrome is severe and prolonged.
如果在肾病综合征患者中报告了甲状腺功能指标异常,甲状腺功能减退是罕见的。
我们报告了3例成年患者(病例1、2、3),他们患有与肾病综合征相关的甲状腺功能减退(微小病变性肾小球肾炎[病例1]、特发性膜性肾病I期[病例2]、II期[病例3])。同时启动了肾小球病治疗和甲状腺激素替代治疗。当蛋白尿减少时,低剂量替代治疗(病例1、2)就足够了。当肾病综合征未得到控制时(病例3),替代剂量则更高。
甲状腺素结合蛋白过多和甲状腺素尿中丢失导致游离甲状腺素水平降低和促甲状腺激素升高。如果肾病综合征严重且持续时间长,有必要进行系统的甲状腺激素检测。
