The levels of anti-thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies and anti-thyroglobulin (TG) antibodies were high, and the findings of the ultrasound examination were compatible with thyroiditis. The disease is currently controlled with antithyroid drugs.</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Case 2: adolescent aged 14 years presenting with manifestations characteristic of hypothyroidism at onset: asthenia, malaise, somnolence, abdominal pain, constipation and decreased appetite. The relevant findings of blood tests were a low level of TSH with an initially normal level of free T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">4</span>, with progression within a month to a presentation more characteristic of hyperthyroidism: palpitations, agitation, insomnia, palpebral retraction, goitre and elevation of free T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">4</span>.</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Case 3: girl aged 10 years with clinical and biochemical features compatible with hyperthyroidism. During the follow-up, the patient exhibited hypothyroidism at low doses of methimazole, leading to discontinuation of treatment after 1.5 years, upon which the patient relapsed and was finally treated with radioiodine. The TRAb detection tests were mildly positive using first-generation assays at 3 years from onset, and later became clearly positive with second-generation binding assays.</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Case 4: newborn infant that developed transient neonatal hyperthyroidism with a family history of GD in the mother, who had undergone thyroidectomy for treatment of papillary thyroid cancer. The results of second-generation binding assays for detection of TRAb were negative in both mother and child.</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Case 5: patient presenting with early-onset persistent hyperthyroidism with a family history of hyperthyroidism and negative TRAb results. The results of gene testing for TSHR-activating mutations were negative. The patient is scheduled to receive radioiodine for curative treatment.</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Although there are few studies in the paediatric population, it appears that patients with hyperthyroidism compatible with GD and undetectable levels of TRAb exhibit thyrotoxicosis with milder clinical manifestations and biochemical abnormalities.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> In this regard, our findings were consistent with the existing literature: none of the 5 patients had thyroid eye disease or pretibial myxoedema, and the levels of free T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">4</span> at diagnosis were not very high.</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In cases 2 and 3, with a mostly silent course, we could hypothesise the coexistence of TSAb and TBAb in the disease process. Recent studies have found evidence of coexistence and changes in the relative proportions of TSAb and TBAb in a single patient, mainly during pregnancy and in up to 10% of patients with GD treated with antithyroid drugs.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> For this reason, in addition to their higher sensitivity, some authors recommend using bioassays in the diagnosis of patients expected to have low antibody levels, pregnant women and cases of neonatal hyperthyroidism.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a></p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">If a patient presents with hyperthyroidism and tests negative for TRAb, the first step would be to make a differential diagnosis with the thyrotoxic phase of Hashimoto thyroiditis (ultrasound findings and compatible antibodies with a reduction in free T4 levels in a few weeks). Although they are infrequent (4.5% of patients with hyperthyroidism, diffuse goitre and negative TRAb<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a>), in cases with early onset, a relevant family history and a poor response to antithyroid drugs (case 5), the possibility of TSHR-activating mutations should be contemplated. Other causes of thyrotoxicosis can be ruled out through the history-taking, physical examination and sonography.</p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Once the alternative diagnoses have been ruled out, one possible explanation to negative results of tests for detection of TRAb is that they may not be sensitive enough to detect low antibody concentrations. Another possible explanation is that the production of TRAb is restricted to the thyroid and the antibodies never enter the systemic circulation. This hypothesis is based on evidence that lymphocytes isolated from the thyroid of a patient with autoimmune thyroiditis in whom TRAb were not detected in blood could produce antithyroid autoantibodies.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3,6</span></a></p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In conclusion, GD cannot be ruled out in patients with a clinical presentation compatible with hyperthyroidism and negative TRAb. It is important to be aware of this potential presentation in order to initiate treatment with antithyroid agents as soon as possible.</p></span>" "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2019-03-07" "fechaAceptado" => "2020-01-13" "NotaPie" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "etiqueta" => "☆" "nota" => "<p class="elsevierStyleNotepara" id="npar0020">Please cite this article as: Scatti Regàs A, Pujol Borrell R, Ferrer Costa R, Puerto Carranza E, Clemente León M.
