In the past decade, there has been increasing recognition of
thyroid diseases as a common health problem. While there have been
few major new advances in treatment, there is much greater
understanding of why thyroid disorders occur and the long-term
health effects of thyroid disease. As people with thyroid disease
begin to know more about their disorder, they are able to
co-operate better with treatment and their anxieties about the
problem can be significantly reduced.
This fourth edition of Thyroid Disease: The Facts provides a
reader-friendly source of information and reassurance for those
people with thyroid disorders and their families. The book covers
the wide range of conditions associated with thyroid dysfunction,
from simple goitre to more complex disorders such as Graves'
disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. This edition also includes
several completely new chapters, including one specifically devoted
to thyroid disorders in infants, children and adolescents. Each
chapter concludes with a useful Question and Answer section.
