摘要:
In briefGraves' disease has a multitude of presentations, and certain symptoms can mimic sports-related concerns such as overtraining. A review of three cases of Graves' disease in young athletes illustrates the spectrum of symptoms and the pathophysiology. Diagnosis involves a detailed patient history, physical exam, and appropriate lab studies, including a thyroid radioactive iodine uptake scan. Treatment consists of symptom management and antithyroid medication, radioactive iodine thyroid ablation, or, rarely, thyroidectomy.
