ABSTRACT
In 10 patients with acute viral hepatitis A or B the dynamics of the concentrations of the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4), triiodothyroxine (T3) and their coefficient T3/T4, and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in all phases of hepatitis have been studied. In acute phase and in the fully developed clinical picture of the diseases, the increased T4 values and decreased values of T3, T3/T4 coefficient and TSH were found. These changes are explained by the slowed down deiodinization of T3 and T4 in hepatocytes as well as by the disturbed secretion of the thyroid hormone in hepatitis and they could be of some value in diagnosis and prognosis.
