INTRODUCTION: Dysthyroidism (hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism) in children and adolescents is much rarer than in adults. The purpose of our study was to study the epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, etiological and etiological aspects and to specify the therapeutic and evolutionary modalities of this condition.
METHOD: This was a five-year descriptive, retrospective and prospective study of children and adolescents under 18 years of age with dysthyroidism.
RESULTS: We collected 90 children and adolescents with dysthyroidism (hyperthyroidism 77.8% (n=70) and hypothyroidism 22.2% (n=20). For hyperthyroidism (n=70): the average age was 13.07 years and the sex ratio was 0.16. The family history of dysthyroidism was found in 24.3% (n=17). Clinical manifestations were dominated by tachycardia 88.57% (n=62), weight loss 87.14% (n=61), vibrating pulse 87.14% (n=61) and palpitation 81.42% (n=57). Bilateral exophthalmos was present in 70% of patients (n=49) with palpebral retraction in 51.42% (n=56). Goitre was present in 54 patients (77.1%). It was diffuse in 62.9% (n=44) and nodular in 12.9% (n=9). Basedow's disease represented the first etiology with 84.3% (n=59), followed by toxic multinodular goitre12, 9% (n=9). Sixty-eight patients (97.1%) received medical treatment with synthetic antithyroid drugs. Clinical remission was achieved in 64.3% (n=45) and 54.3% of patients were in biological euthyroidism at 6 months follow-up. For hypothyroidism (n=20): the average age was 10.70 years and the sex ratio was 0.53. Six family cases of hypothyroidism and three cases of family goitre were found. The clinical picture was dominated by signs of hypo metabolism at hypersomnia type 95% (n=19) and anorexia 75% (n=15). The skin was dry in 60% (n=12). A staturo-weight delay in 65% (n=13), behavioural disorders in 55% (n=11), weight gain in 40% (n=8) and puberty delay in 10% (n=2). Goitre was nodular in 25% (n=5) with cervical adenopathy present in 15% (n=3). Hashimoto's thyroiditis accounted for 45% (n=9) of etiologies followed by iodine deficiency disorders in 15% (n=3) and iatrogenic causes (2 cases of thyroidectomy). All patients were started on hormone replacement therapy for life. Five patients with large multinodular goiter received total thyroidectomy in addition to medical treatment. Euthyroidism was observed in 55% (n=11) of patients at 6 months follow-up.
CONCLUSION: Dysthyroidism in children and adolescents exists in our health facilities. Its management is deficient because of the technical and financial platform. Our public health decision-makers must help implement a screening strategy to facilitate faster diagnosis and treatment.
