Abstract
Thyroid disorders are common in adolescents; in fact, they occurred in 3.7% of children between the ages of 11 and 18 in one study. Early recognition and treatment of these conditions can help to minimize their effects. Here, the author details the epidemiology, diagnosis, and clinical management of hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, thyroid nodules, and cancer.Entities:
