A 46-year-old female came to the gynecology outpatient department with heavy and prolonged menstrual bleeding. The examination revealed a thyroid mass and tachycardia. Systemic and gynecological examinations were insignificant. Laboratory tests revealed a deranged thyroid profile which was further explored by performing magnetic resonance imaging. This revealed a functioning pituitary microadenoma producing thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). This entity is known as a TSHoma. Ultrasonography of the abdomen and pelvis showed increased endometrial thickness. The patient was treated with antithyroid medication and has undergone Mirena intrauterine contraceptive device insertion. The patient is planned for a hysterectomy when the thyroid profile is normalized.
一名46岁女性因月经量多且经期延长前往妇科门诊就诊。检查发现甲状腺肿块和心动过速。全身检查和妇科检查均无异常。实验室检查显示甲状腺功能紊乱,通过磁共振成像进一步检查。结果显示为分泌促甲状腺激素(TSH)的功能性垂体微腺瘤。这种病症称为TSH瘤。腹部和盆腔超声检查显示子宫内膜厚度增加。该患者接受了抗甲状腺药物治疗,并已植入曼月乐宫内节育器。计划在甲状腺功能恢复正常后为该患者实施子宫切除术。
