Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis-Associated Acute Renal Failure and Pitfalls of eGFR Interpretation in Thyroid Diseases

The authors describe a patient with severe hypothyroidism due to Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and describe the pitfalls of estimated glomerular filtration rate interpretation in such cases. LEARNING POINTS: Manifest hypothyroidism can lead to a functional reduction in glomerular filtration rates (GFRs)....

description The authors describe a patient with severe hypothyroidism due to Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and describe the pitfalls of estimated glomerular filtration rate interpretation in such cases. LEARNING POINTS: Manifest hypothyroidism can lead to a functional reduction in glomerular filtration rates (GFRs). Restoration of a normal thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) will also restore kidney function. Cystatin C-based GFR formulas will overestimate renal filtration rates in cases of hypothyroidism and underestimate GFRs in cases of hyperthyroidism.
