Overview
There is no established system for the classification of toxic multinodular goiter.
Classification
Based on the origin of the abnormality
There is no established system for the classification of toxic multinodular goiter.
Based on the iodine uptake
Based on the results of iodine uptake, thyroid disorders may be classified into high uptake, high or normal uptake, and low uptake.[1]
| According to iodine uptake | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| High uptake | High or normal uptake | Low uptake | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| • Toxic multinodular goiter • Graves' disease • Toxic thyroid adenoma | • Iodine caused hyperthyroidism • Hashitoxicosis • Germ cell tumors (choriocarcinoma in males and testicular germ cell tumors) • Pituitary TSH producing adenoma | • Subacute thyroiditis • Hyperthyroidism due to ectopic thyroid tissue • Factitious thyrotoxicosis • Struma ovarii • Painless thyroiditis • Amiodarone induced thyroiditis-Type 1 • Amiodarone induced thyroiditis-Type 2 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
