Abstract

Hyperthyroidism due to inappropriate secretion of TSH is rare. It may be due to either TSH-secreting pituitary adenomas (n = 15) or selective pituitary resistance to thyroid hormone action (n = 31). The recognition of these patients is of great clinical importance since they should be treated differently than patients with more common forms of hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease, autonomous thyroid nodule).
