Dear all,
We need help in these set of results
An 18-year-old male presented to the ophthalmologist with lid retraction and
lid lag. Physical examination hasn’t been done. No H/O any medical disorder
and he is not on any medication. His TFT results were measured on Elecsys
2010:
TSH < 0.005 (0.27-4.2 µIU/mL)
FT4 10.2 (12-22 pmol/L)
FT3 4.6 (3-5.9 pmol/L)
Repeated TFT on Architect to eliminate any possibility of interference:
TSH < 0.003 (0.3 - 4.3 mIU/L)
FT4 7.8 (8.4 -22.6 pmol/L)
FT3 3.8 (3-5.9 pmol/L)
Other hormone were measured ;
FSH 3.4 (1-8 IU/L)
LH 2.3 (2-14 IU/L)
PRL 168 (21-360 mIU/L)
And anti- thyroid peroxidase antibodies were 16 IU/L (< 10 negative)
What do you think about such results ? and what further tests/actions will
you do?
