Overview

Differentiating Graves' disease from other Diseases

Disease Findings
Hashitoxicosis It is autoimmune thyroid disease who initially present with hyperthyroidism and a high radioiodine uptake caused by TSH-receptor antibodies similar to Graves' disease followed by the development of hypothyroidism due to infiltration of thyroid gland with lymphocytes and resultant autoimmune-mediated destruction of thyroid tissue similar to chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis.[1]
Appendicitis Pain localized to the right iliac fossa, vomiting, abdominal ultrasound sensitivity for diagnosis of acute appendicitis is 75% to 90%.[2]
Rupturedovarian cyst usually spontaneous, can follow history of trauma; mild chronic lower abdominal discomfort may suddenly intensify, ultrasound is diagnostic.[3]
Ovarian cyst torsion Present with acute severe unilateral lower quadrant abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, tender adnexal mass palpated in 90%, ultrasound is diagnostic.[4]
Hemorrhagic ovarian cyst Presents with localized abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Hypovolemic shock may be present; abdominal tenderness and guarding are physical exam findings, ultrasound is diagnostic.[4]
Endometriosis Present with cyclic pain that is exacerbated by onset of menses and during the luteal phase; dyspareuni, transvaginal ultrasound is suggestive, laparascopic exploration is diagnostic.[4]
Diverticulitis Present with bowel symptoms in older women
Acute cystitis Features with increased frequency and urgency, dysuria, and suprapubic pain.[5][6]
