Abstract in Portuguese
INTRODUÇÃO: A doença de Graves (DG), juntamente com a tireoidite de Hashimoto, compõe as doenças endócrinas autoimunes mais comuns, atingindo cerca de 5% da população. Entre as opções terapêuticas para o tratamento do hipertireoidismo induzido pela DG, encontram-se as drogas antitireoidianas, o iodo radioativo (131I) e a cirurgia. A ultrassonografia Doppler (US-Doppler) como parâmetro de resposta ao tratamento da DG pode ser muito útil e foi pouco pesquisada no acompanhamento do tratamento por radioiodo. OBJETIVO: O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a eficácia da US-Doppler no acompanhamento dos pacientes com DG que foram tratados com iodo radioativo, correlacionando com o quadro clínico-laboratorial da doença. MÉTODOS: Estudo prospectivo em que foram avaliados 97 pacientes com diagnóstico confirmado de DG e tratados com o radioiodo. O estudo foi conduzido no Instituto de Radiologia do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo, de junho de 2011 à agosto de 2015. Todos os indivíduos foram submetidos aos testes laboratoriais e à US-Doppler pré e pós-dose terapêutica de 131I, com 1, 3 e 6 meses, quando foram aferidos o volume tireoidiano e a velocidade de pico sistólico (VPS) nas artérias tireóideas inferiores (ATIs). Além disso, procedeu-se uma avaliação subjetiva da ecogenicidade, textura e vascularização difusa do parênquima tireoidiano. RESULTADOS: Nos parâmetros objetivos pós-intervenção, verificou-se correlação estatisticamente significativa (P < 0,001) da normalização do volume tireoidiano e das VPSs das ATIs com os dados laboratoriais. Já os parâmetros subjetivos de ecogenicidade e vascularização do parênquima, embora tenham apresentado melhora estatisticamente significativa, não tiveram correlação significativa com a normalização dos hormônios tireoidianos. A textura não apresentou alteração. CONCLUSÕES: A US-Doppler se mostrou capaz de monitorar a resposta pós-tratamento com radioiodoterapia de pacientes com DG, por meio da avaliação do volume e das VPSs nas ATIs, podendo predizer, precocemente, a boa resposta ao tratamento

Abstract in English
INTRODUCTION: Graves' disease (GD), along with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), are the most common autoimmune endocrine disorders, affecting about 5% of the population. Treatment options for hyperthyroidism caused by GD are: antithyroid drugs, radioiodine (131I) and surgery. The use of Doppler ultrasound (US-Doppler) as a response parameter to evaluate the treatment of GD can be very useful and has been poorly researched for monitoring treatment after radioiodine therapy (RIT). AIM: The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of US-Doppler for monitoring patients with GD after radioactive iodine therapy, and correlate with the laboratorial diagnosis. METHODS: A prospective study which evaluated 97 patients with confirmed GD who underwent treatment with radioiodine. The study was conducted at the Institute of Radiology of the "Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo" from June 2011 to August 2015. All patients were submitted to laboratory tests, a US-Doppler evaluation before RIT and 1, 3 and 6 months after, in which were measured thyroid volume and systolic peak velocity (SPV) in the lower thyroid arteries (LTAs), and a subjective evaluation of echogenicity, texture and diffuse vascularity of the thyroid parenchyma. RESULTS: In the post-intervention objective parameters, a statistically significant correlation was found (P < 0,001) with the normalization of thyroid volume and SPVs of LTAs with laboratory data. Although the subjective parameters of echogenicity and vascularity of the parenchyma were statistically significant, they did not correlate with thyroid hormones normalization. The texture was not affected. CONCLUSIONS: The USDoppler has demonstrated effectiveness for monitoring response treatment after radioiodine therapy with assessment of gland volume and SPVs in the LTAs, being able to predict, in early stages, good response to treatment
