Key result
Recent advances in the management of amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis emphasize a patient-centered approach, prioritizing cardiovascular risk assessment and considering emergency thyroidectomy for severe cardiac dysfunction.
Why the study?
Amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis carries high morbidity and mortality, yet management varies widely due to diagnostic uncertainties and therapeutic challenges.

Supports individualized cardiac risk assessment; leaves open need for prospective trials on thyroidectomy thresholds.
This review emphasizes a patient-centered approach to amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis, prioritizing emergency thyroidectomy for those with severe cardiac dysfunction and tailored medical therapy based on AIT type for stable patients.
Cappellani et al. (2023) conducted a review in Amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis. Recent advances in the management of amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis emphasize a patient-centered approach, prioritizing cardiovascular risk assessment and considering emergency thyroidectomy for severe cardiac dysfunction.
