Abstract

The objective of this study was to describe the epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical and etiological profiles of hyperthyroidism at Kara Teaching Hospital. This was a retrospective study of the records of patients followed for hyperthyroidism in the internal medicine and endocrinology department of the Kara Teaching Hospital from June 2021 to March 2023. During this study period, 33 (2.24%) of the 1476 patients had hyperthyroidism. Women accounted for 81.82% of cases. The mean age was 44.72 +/- 15.76 with extremes ranging from 10 to 71 years. Goiter was found in 78.79% of cases, followed by asthenia 72.73% and tachycardia 60.61%. The causes of hyperthyroidism were Graves' disease in 36.36% of cases, thyroiditis in 30.30% of cases, toxic multinodular goiter in 27.27% of cases, and toxic nodule in 6.06% of cases. 6% of patients had complications such as cardiothyreosis. The course with synthetic antithyroids was favorable with normalization of thyroid hormones. Finally, 30% of the patients had been operated on. Hyperthyroidism is very common in hospitals in Kara with a female predominance. The clinical signs are varied and the main cause is Graves' disease.
