We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records and thyroid sonograms of these 13 patients. The sonograms were assessed subjectively for thyroid size, echogenicity, vascularity, and the presence of solid nodules and cysts.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Sonography showed abnormality of the thyroid in all 13 patients. In 11 patients (85%), sonography showed widespread hypoechogenicity (compared with the muscle) whose distribution was diffuse (6 patients) or patchy (5 patients) and diffusely distributed areas of hypervascularity (type 1 pattern). All 11 of these patients had a clinical diagnosis of Graves' disease. One patient (8%) had multinodular goiter and enlargement of the thyroid with multiple heterogeneous solid nodules and cysts (type 2 pattern); the clinical diagnosis was toxic multinodal goiter. One patient (8%) had a combination of type 1 and type 2 patterns and a clinical diagnosis of Graves' disease.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The sonographic abnormalities of the thyroid in patients with TPP reflect the common underlying causes of thyrotoxicosis in the general population. The sonographic appearances associated with Graves' disease (type 1 pattern) were the most common abnormality detected. No sonographic features specific to TPP were identified. \u00a9 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
