  • Title: Thyrotropin-secreting adenoma in an adolescent girl without increased serum thyrotropin-alpha.
    Author: Korn EA, Gaich G, Brines M, Carpenter TO.
    Journal: Horm Res; 1994; 42(3):120-3. PubMed ID: 7527792.
    Abstract:
    A 13-year-old girl with poor weight gain and pubertal delay was referred for hyperthyroidism. Slightly elevated levels of circulating thyroid hormones failed to suppress circulating thyrotropin (TSH) levels. Despite appropriate thyrotropin-releasing hormone stimulation of TSH secretion, a thyrotropin-secreting pituitary adenoma was identified as the cause of inappropriate TSH secretion.
