Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Secondary and tertiary preventions are concerned with the recognition of the disease process in a very early stage and delay in progression to complete disease and minimization of complications and the impact of illness.
METHODS: All articles related to secondary and tertiary prevention of thyroid diseases were reviewed. Using related key words, articles published between 2001 and 2015 were evaluated, categorized, and analyzed.
RESULTS: In secondary prevention, congenital hypothyroidism and subclinical hypo and hyperthyroidism are equally important. Routine screening of patients with multinodular goiter by either ultrasonography or calcitonin is a controversial issue, while calcitonin assessments in medullary cancer and RET in family members are recommended. Screening of thyroid disease in pregnancy is limited to those with risk factors. Views regarding the importance of thyroid autoimmunity in secondary prevention are also presented. In tertiary prevention, prescribing excessive doses of levothyroxine, in the elderly in particular and appropriate care of all patients to avoid progression and complications are the key issues.
CONCLUSION: Optimization of management of thyroid diseases requires timely screening, prevention of progression to more sever disease, optimal medical care, and avoidance of iatrogenic conditions.
