Abstract

Finding the cause of gynecomastia and galactorrhoea can be challenging, hence one of the most important cornerstones is detailed case history. Gynecomastia is an enlargement of the breast in males due to hyperplasia of the glandular tissue. Causes: Physiological (20%) Pathological (30%) Drugs (10-20%) Idiopathic (25%). We report a case of gynecomastia with prolactin disorder and previous use of antihypertensive medication. A 68 year old man, with hypertensive heart disease, controlled on medication (low dose spironolactone 25mg/day, digoxin 0.25mg/day and diltiazem 30 mg three times a day), for the last 12 months; presented with painful swelling and discharge of bilateral breasts for the last 14 days; on examination of both breasts a firm, mobile lump was palpated under the right nipple; blood tests: BUN 12 mg/dL; Creatinine 1.1 mg/dL; TSH 0.57 μIU/ml; LH 12,0 IU/mL; Testosteron 6,41 ng/mL; Estradiol 111,8 pmol/L; Prolactin 87.5 ng/mL. Head MRI was performed; multiple chronic lacunar infarcts, intrasellar and suprasellar were normal and no mass or infection was visible. The probable cause was attributed to spironolactone and digoxin, the medications were stopped; the patient's pain and swelling improved and returned to normal after 2 months of discontinuation, prolactin was assessed at 0.193 ng/mL. Gynecomastia due to spironolactone has many mechanisms: blockade of androgen receptors, prevent binding of testosterone & dihydrotestosterone; decrease testosterone production from testes, increase estrogens by enhancing peripheral conversion of testosterone to estradiol. It has been suggested that digoxin binds to the estrogens receptor and may directly stimulate breast tissue proliferation, inducing gynecomastia. Spironolactone is known to cause gynecomastia; there are very few case reports of digoxin-induced gynecomastia. No other evidence of prolactinoma in this case. It is important for the clinician to keep this in mind; although low doses combination between spironolactone and digoxin may cause gynecomastia.

Abstract

Agranulocytosis is a rare condition and occurs in all age groups. Incidence ranges from 6 to 8 cases per million population per year. About 70% of the cases are found to be involved with medication usage. The use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is effective for ATD-induced agranulocytosis, though some patients do not respond. A 22-year-old female was diagnosed with Grave's disease (GD) three months ago and began using Methimazole (MMI) at an initial dose of 20 mg/day. She was taken to the emergency room after complaining of a fever and stomachache for a week. Laboratories: The patient had leucopenia (white blood cell count 2040/mm3) and severe neutropenia, with an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) of 122.4/μL, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) of 0.005 IU/mL, and free thyroxine (FT4) of 46.81 pmol/L. The patient received G-CSF, which normalized her neutrophil counts after the first injection and resolved her fever. She was recommended to quit methimazole therapy. MMI is thionamide used as a first-line treatment for GD. The most severe side effect is agranulocytosis. Agranulocytosis can have various presentations; it most frequently occurs between 2 weeks and 3 months after the initiation of treatment. If the patient recovers, granulocytes begin to reappear in the periphery within a few days to 3 weeks. This drug-induced agranulocytosis is a lethal condition but reversible if recognized early and treated accordingly. G-CSF may shorten the recovery period.

Abstract

Hashimoto Thyroiditis with Grave’s disease/Hashitixicosis is found in some cases, snd this case repirt describes a case of a woman with Hashitoxicosis. A 27 year old woman came to polyclinic on 18th March 2024 with complain of a lump felt, fatique, constipation and weight loss two month before she had weight gain later without any treatment. She was compomentis, BP 149/90 mmHg, HR 87x/i, Wayne index 0, Billewicz score -22. TSH 93.40 mclU/mL and FT4 0.39 ng/dL, anti-TPO >1000 Iau/mL, TRAb 2.46 IU/L. Thyroid ultrasound showed toxic diffuse struma, thyroid scintigraphy revealed enlarge lobes with high and even distribution and capture of radioactivity with conclusion Toxic Diffuse Struma, and cytologic examination showed colloid goiter. Patient was diagnosed as Hashitoxicosis and has been treated with levothyroxine 100 mg once daily. This woman was diagnosed as Hashitoxicosis based on clinical features of hypothyroidism at admission to polyclinic following clinical features of hyperthyroidism initially without any treatment, with laboratory results showed hypothyroidism with the increased of antibody for Hashimoto Thyroiditis and Grave’s disease. Treatment with levothyroxine 100 mg once daily showed the decrease of TSH and normal FT4 level. We report a case of Hashitoxicosis based on clinical features of hypothyroid following hyperthyroidism initially, laboratory, thyroid ultrasound thyroid scintigraphy, and cytologic examination result. Treatment with levothyroxine showed improvement.

Abstract

Multiple autoimmune syndrome (MAS) is characterized by the presence of at least three autoimmune diseases, presenting complex clinical challenges due to overlapping conditions and varied manifestations. Multiple autoimmune syndrome is rarely reported in men, particularly with the combination of Graves’ disease, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and autoimmune hepatitis (AIH). We report a case of a 22-year-old male who presented with symptoms of jaundice, significant weight loss, and classic signs of hyperthyroidism, including palpitations and tremors. Physical examination revealed jaundice, exophthalmos, and an enlarged thyroid gland, and he was diagnosed with Graves' disease, SLE, and AIH. Additional findings included stasis dermatitis and an atrial septal defect (ASD) with a moderate risk of pulmonary hypertension. The patient received thiamazole, propranolol, and corticosteroids, leading to clinical stabilization and symptom resolution. This rare MAS case with concurrent Graves’ disease, SLE, and AIH highlights the need for accurate diagnosis and individualized management. The immunological interplay among these diseases contributes to diverse clinical manifestations, requiring a multidisciplinary approach. Our patient’s management strategy effectively controlled hyperthyroidism, mitigated hepatic inflammation, and stabilized cardiac function, illustrating the effectiveness of comprehensive therapy. In young patients presenting with multiple autoimmune symptoms, MAS should be considered, especially with unusual combinations. Early detection and tailored treatment approaches, along with interdisciplinary collaboration, are essential to manage MAS and its associated complications.

Abstract

Pituitary macroadenomas can suppress pituitary hormone secretion, one of which is the gonadotropin hormone, causing hypogonadism. The condition of hypogonadism can increase the risk of NAFLD, which can then become liver cirrhosis. A 30-year-old man came to the hospital with decreased consciousness and hematemesis melena. From physical examination, laboratory, and pituitary MRI, the patient was diagnosed with pituitary macroadenoma, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, primary hypothyroidism, acute adrenal insufficiency, and liver cirrhosis. The patient was given hydrocortisone therapy, correction of electrolyte levels, hypoglycemia protocol, levothyroxine 100 mg/day, and management of hematemesis melena. After that, Sustanon 250 mg was given every two weeks intramuscularly. The patient went home in good condition and was planned for neurosurgery consultation for transsphenoidal resection. After the injection of Sustanon, the patient experienced increased penile length and testicular volume. The condition of hypogonadism in patients with pituitary macroadenoma can be a risk factor for NAFLD, which can then progress to liver cirrhosis. NAFLD and liver cirrhosis also can cause hypogonadism in men by several mechanisms. The patient has been well-managed and experienced clinical improvement.

Abstract

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a life-threatening complication of diabetes. There are not many cases reported relate to this case. This case report aims to present a case of DKA which is a common and potentially life-threatening complication in T1DM and can be the first sign of undiagnosed diabetes. A 36-year-old female presented with altered mental status and breathing difficulty. The patient's three children had recently contracted varicella (chickenpox). The patient was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus 8 months ago, with irregular adherence to treatment. Vital signs included a blood pressure of 84/60 mmHg on norepinephrine at 12 mcg/min, heart rate of 135 bpm, respiratory rate of 33 breaths/min, and temperature of 38.9°C. Physical examination revealed multiple lenticular, circumscribed vesicles with an erythematous base across the entire body. Laboratory results showed leukocytosis (leukocytes: 16,000 x 103/μL), hyperglycemia (random blood glucose: 273 mg/dL), severe metabolic acidosis (pH: 7.002, HCO3: 5.7 mEq/L, BE: -23.6 mEq/L), hypoxemia (pO2: 38 mmHg, SaO2: 52.8%), hypoalbuminemia (albumin: 3.48 g/dL), and stage I acute kidney injury (creatinine: 1.36 mg/dL). Urinalysis revealed the presence of ketone bodies. The patient was subsequently diagnosed with severe diabetic ketoacidosis, varicella zoster infection, septic shock with multiorgan failure, and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Despite initial treatment efforts, the patient’s condition continued to deteriorate, with no signs of clinical improvement. After 3 days, the patient deceased. In conclusion, although varicella zoster infection is an uncommon precipitant of DKA, the present case report highlights the critical role of varicella zoster vaccination and optimal glycemic control in DMT1 to prevent infection-related DKA progression.
