We experienced the anesthetic management of coronary artery bypass graft operation (3 vessels) in a patient with hypothyroidism. Prior to the operation, the substitution therapy for thyroid hormone was performed, but thyroid function could not be normalized. From 30 minutes after starting cardiopulmonary bypass, edema appeared on four limbs. Also, edema of intestinal tract and the distended abdomen was observed. By administering T4 preparation intravenously edema diminished within about 2 hours without exhibiting any change in ECG findings and hemodynamics. This case may suggest that the intraoperative substitution of thyroid hormone is a safe and effective method in a patient with hypothyroidism.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007037 Hypothyroidism A syndrome that results from abnormally low secretion of THYROID HORMONES from the THYROID GLAND, leading to a decrease in BASAL METABOLIC RATE. In its most severe form, there is accumulation of MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDES in the SKIN and EDEMA, known as MYXEDEMA. It may be primary or secondary due to other pituitary disease, or hypothalamic dysfunction.

D013974 Thyroxine The major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.
