We report the case of a 5-year-old hyperthyroid boy with normal serum T4 levels are elevated serum T3 levels. The findings are diagnostic of T3 thyrotoxicosis, a condition that has been very infrequently reported in childhood. We postulate that low dietary iodine intake may be an etiologic factor in some cases of T3 thyrotoxicosis.
我们报告了一例5岁的甲状腺功能亢进男孩,其血清T4水平正常,但血清T3水平升高。这些发现可诊断为T3甲状腺毒症,这种病症在儿童期很少有报道。我们推测,低膳食碘摄入量可能是某些T3甲状腺毒症病例的病因。
