  • Title: [Cardiac symptoms in a patient with Addison's disease and hypothyreosis on the basis of autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type II].
    Author: Hachová A, Brunerová L, Gregor P.
    Journal: Vnitr Lek; 2012 Jun; 58(6):473-6. PubMed ID: 22913240.
    Abstract:
    In many endocrine diseases we can find a heart disorder. We present a case of a young patient aged 34 years, who was examined for non-specific ST-T abnormalities on ECG and a new-diagnosed left ventricle dysfunction with suspicion to the acute coronary syndroma. However, this diagnosis wasn't verified. Endocrinological examination detected the Addison's disease and a severe hypothyreosis. After the hormonal substitution therapy was given, the patient became asymptomatic and the ECG- and echocardiographic changes disappeared.
