Comparison of Hematologic and Autoimmune Status of Patients With Graves Disease and Autoimmune Thyroiditis During Surgical Treatment
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: A total of 28 (65.1%) patients with Graves’ disease (GD) and anemia (average age 43.6 ± 2.5 years) and 36 individuals with autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) and anemia (average age 44.1 ± 1.7 years) were examined. Performing total thyroidectomy in patients with GD and AIT with anemia leads to the cessation of the autoimmune process and improvement in hematologic parameters against the background of euthyroidism, achieved within a year after the surgery through replacement therapy with levothyroxine. Preservation of thyroid tissue in both groups of patients during subtotal thyroidectomy seems to contribute to further exacerbation of autoimmune disorders and deterioration of hematologic parameters, despite the euthyroid hormonal profile of patients a year after surgery.
