RESUMO

IntroducciónLa gammagrafía con tecnecio-sestamibi (MIBI) es la prueba de elección para la localización de los adenomas en pacientes con hiperparatiroidismo primario (HPTP). En algunos estudios se ha sugerido que el aumento de la sensibilidad de esta prueba podría estar en relación con una disminución de la captación del radiotrazador por parte de la glándula tiroidea. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar nuestra experiencia en pacientes con gammagrafías con MIBI negativas en los que se repitió el estudio tras la supresión de la función tiroidea con tiroxina.Material y métodosEntre enero de 2006 y abril de 2011 se evaluaron de forma prospectiva 17 pacientes con HPTP e imagen gammagráfica con MIBI negativa en los que se repitió dicha prueba tras la administración de tiroxina. Se revisan los datos gammagráficos y la correlación con los hallazgos en la intervención quirúrgica.ResultadosLa media de TSH en el momento de repetir la MIBI fue de 0,12 + 0,1mlU/L. De los 17 pacientes incluidos, en 13 de ellos (76,5%) la gammagrafía bajo supresión de la función tiroidea fue positiva, y en los otros 4 pacientes (23,5%) no se encontró imagen sugestiva de adenoma. En los casos en los que el MIBI fue positivo tras la supresión, el valor predictivo positivo (VPP) fue del 100%.ConclusiónLa supresión de la función tiroidea mediante la administración de tiroxina puede ayudar a mejorar la sensibilidad del MIBI en pacientes con estudios gammagráficos previos negativos y ayudar a tratar de una forma mínimamente invasiva a pacientes con HPTP (AU)


IntroductionScintigraphy with technetium-sestamibi (MIBI) is the test of choice for localising adenomas in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). In some studies it has emerged that the increase in sensitivity of this test could be associated with a decrease in the uptake of the radiotracer by the thyroid gland. The aim of this study is to analyse our experience in patients with a negative scintigraphy with MIBI, and in whom the study was repeated after suppression of thyroid function with thyroxine.Material and methodsA prospective evaluation was performed on 17 patients who, between January 2006 and April 2011, had PHPT and negative imaging using scintigraphy with MIBI and who had the test repeated after the administration of thyroxine. The scintigraphy data and the correlation with the findings in the surgical intervention are reviewed.ResultsThe mean TSH at the time of repeating the MIBI was 0.12+0.1mlU/L. Of the 17 patients included, the scintigraphy under thyroid suppression was positive in 13 of them (76.5%), and in the other 4 (23.5%) patients no image suggestive of adenoma was found. In the cases where the MIBI was positive after suppression, the positive predictive value (PPV) was 100%.ConclusionSuppression of thyroid function by giving thyroxine can help to improve the sensitivity of MIBI in patients with previously negative scintigraphy studies and help in the minimally invasive treatment of patients with PHPT (AU)

INTRODUCTION: Scintigraphy with technetium-sestamibi (MIBI) is the test of choice for localising adenomas in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). In some studies it has emerged that the increase in sensitivity of this test could be associated with a decrease in the uptake of the radiotracer by the thyroid gland. The aim of this study is to analyse our experience in patients with a negative scintigraphy with MIBI, and in whom the study was repeated after suppression of thyroid function with thyroxine. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A prospective evaluation was performed on 17 patients who, between January 2006 and April 2011, had PHPT and negative imaging using scintigraphy with MIBI and who had the test repeated after the administration of thyroxine. The scintigraphy data and the correlation with the findings in the surgical intervention are reviewed. RESULTS: The mean TSH at the time of repeating the MIBI was 0.12+0.1mlU/L.

In the cases where the MIBI was positive after suppression, the positive predictive value (PPV) was 100%. CONCLUSION: Suppression of thyroid function by giving thyroxine can help to improve the sensitivity of MIBI in patients with previously negative scintigraphy studies and help in the minimally invasive treatment of patients with PHPT.

RESUMO

Introducción: Diferentes tipos de células producen óxido nítricomediante la acción de la enzima óxido nítrico sintetasa (NOS). Existen cuatro isoformas de la enzima NOS, la neuronal, la endotelial, la mitocondrial y la inducible (iNOS). La producción de NO puede tener un papel importante en la patogenia de la inflamación y el daño de tejidosq ue no ha sido explorado adecuadamente en la enfermedad tiroideaautoinmunitaria. Objetivo: Estudiar la expresión de iNOS, tanto en proteína como en el ARNm, en las enfermedades tiroideas autoinmunitarias. Pacientes y método: Se evaluó la expresión de iNOS en los tiroides de10 pacientes con enfermedad de Graves (EG), 5 con tiroiditis de Hashimoto (TH) y 10 controles sanos, mediante inmunohistoquímica y transcripción inversa-reacción en cadena de la polimerasa (RT-PCR).Resultados: Se encontró un incremento en la expresión de iNOS en lag lándula tiroides de pacientes con EG y con TH tanto por PCR como mediante inmunohistoquímica. Esta expresión fue mayor en pacientes con EG. Por el contrario, en la glándula tiroides de sujetos sanos no se observó expresión de iNOS. La expresión de iNOS, tanto en EG como en TH, se detectó en células foliculares tiroideas, principalmente en las próximas al infiltrado inflamatorio. Asimismo, se observó expresión de iNOS en células endoteliales y células mononucleares del infiltrado inflamatorio en EG y TH. Conclusiones: La expresión prominente de iNOS en la enfermedad tiroidea autoinmunitaria indica que el NO puede tener un papel importante en la patogenia del fenómeno inflamatorio y el daño del tejido que ocurre en esta afección (AU)


Introduction: Nitric oxide is synthesized by different cell types through the action of the enzyme nitric oxide synthase (NOS).There are four is forms of this enzyme: the neuronal, the endothelial, the mitochondrial, and the inducible (iNOS) forms. Although NO production may play an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammation and tissue damage, its possible role in autoimmune thyroiditis has not been adequately explored. Objective: To study protein and mRNA expression of iNOS in human autoimmune thyroid disorders (AITD).Patients and method: We evaluated the expression of iNOS in thyroid glandspecimens from 10 patients with Graves’ disease (GD), from five patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) and from 10controls by immunohistochemical and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results: Both immunohistochemistry and PCR techniques showed up-regulated expression of iNOS in the thyroid glands of patients with GD and HT. iNOS expression was higher in GD than in HT. In contrast,no iNOS expression was detected in normal thyroid tissue. In both GD and HT, iNOS was detected in thyrocytes, mainly int hose localized in areas close to the inflammatory cell infiltrate. In addition, upregulated expression of iNOS was observed in endothelial cells and thyroidinfiltrating mononuclear cells in both GD and HT. Conclusions: The enhanced expression of iNOS in autoimmune thyroiditis suggests that NO synthesis may play an important role in the inflammatory phenomena and tissue damage observed in this disease (AU)
