Abstract

The use of thyroxin for suppression or replacement therapy following thyroidectomy is very common. But its effect on bone mineral density (BMDj, is beeing debated. The aim of this study is to determine whether long-term thyroxine therapy is a risk factor for the development of secondary osteoporosis in premenopousal and postmenopousal women after thyroidectomy. 33 premenopousal and 17 postmenopousal female patients who had thyroidectomy for different indications in Ankara Numune Teaching and Research Hospital department of fifth surgery clinic between September 2001 and October 2003 were included in this study. The patients were put on 50-200mcg/day L-thyroxine postoperatively and dosage was adjusted on routine follow-ups. BMD of patients at lumbar, femoral neck and Ward' triangle regions was measured using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry preoperatively and postoperatively after 6th month and first year. There was no significant difference in thyroid hormone levels and l-thyroxine dose between the premenopousal and postmenopousal patients (p>0.05). There was no significant difference in preoperative, postoperative 6th month and postoperative first year BMD of patients groups (p>0.05j. No correlation was detected between the BMD and preoperative diagnosis, surgical procedure, the dose and duration of L-thyroxine therapy. In conclusion we think that long-term thyroxine therapy is not a single predisposant factor for decrease in BMD.

Özet

Tiroidektomi sonrası tiroksinin süpresif veya idame amaçlı kullanımı oldukça yaygındır. Ancak uzun dönem tiroksin tedavisinin kemik mineral dansitesine (KMD) etkisi tartışmalıdır. Bu çalışmada amaç tiroidektomi sonrası uzun dönem tiroksin tedavisi alan premenopozal ve postmenopozal kadınların sekonder osteoporoz açısından bir risk altında olup olmadığının belirlenmesidir. Ankara Numune Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi 5. Cerrahi Kliniğinde Eylül 2001 - Ekim 2003 tarihleri arasında farklı nedenlerle tiroidektomi uygulanan 33 premenopozal ve 17 postmenopozal kadın hasta çalışmaya alındı. Tiroidektomi sonrası 50-200 mcg/gün L-tiroksin başlanan hastalara daha sonraki kontrollerde gerektiğinde doz ayarlaması yapıldı. Hastalarda preoperatif, postoperatif 6. ay ve I .yılda lomber vertebra, femur boynu ve Wards' üçgeninde Dual-Energy X-Ray absorbsiyometri yöntemiyle KMD ölçümleri yapıldı. Premenopozal ve postmenopozal hastalar arasında tiroid hormon düzeyleri ve L-tiroksin dozu açısından istatistiksel anlamlı fark saptanmadı (p>0.05). Her iki grupta da preoperatif, postoperatif 6.ay ve l.yıl KMD'teri açısından anlamlı fark saptanmadı (p>0.05). Premenopozal ve postmenopozal hastalarda preoperatif tanı, yapılan cerrahi işlem, L-tiroksin dozu ve süresinin KMD ile ilişkisi bulunamamıştır. Tiroidektomi sonrası uzun dönem tiroksin tedavisinin tek başına KMD'sinde azalmaya sebep olacak bir etken olmadığını düşünmekteyiz.
