| Disease | Findings |
|---|---|
| Direct chemical toxicity with inflammation | Amiodarone, sunitinib, pazopanib, axitinib, and other tyrosine kinase inhibitors may also be associated with a destructive thyroiditis. |
| Direct chemical toxicity with inflammation | Patients who treated with radioiodine, may develops thyroid pain and tenderness 5 to 10 days later, due to radiation-induced injury and necrosis of thyroid follicular cells and associated inflammation. |
| Drugs that interfere with the immune system | nterferon-alfa is well known for associated thyroid abnormality. It mostly lead to development of de novo antithyroid antibodies. |
| Lithium | Patients treated with lithium are at high risk to develop painless thyroiditis and Graves' disease. |
| Palpation thyroiditis | Manipulation of thyroid gland during thyroid biopsy or neck surgery and vigorous palpation during physical examination may cause transient hyperthyroidism. |
| Exogenous and ectopic hyperthyroidism | Factitious ingestion of thyroid hormone |
| Acute hyperthyroidism from a levothyroxine overdose | |
| Struma ovarii | |
| Functional thyroid cancer metastases | |
| 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] |
| Toxic adenoma and toxic multinodular goiter | Toxic adenoma and toxic multinodular goiter are result of focal/diffuse hyperplasia of thyroid follicular cells independent to TSH regulation. Finding single or multiple nodules in physical examination or thyroid scan.[2] |
| Iodine-induced hyperthyroidism | It is uncommon but, can develop after an iodine load, such as administration of contrast agents used for angiography or computed tomography (CT) or iodine-rich drugs such as amiodarone. |
| Trophoblastic disease and germ cell tumors |
