Types of endocrine disease[edit]

Broadly speaking, endocrine disorders may be subdivided into three groups:
[1]
1. Endocrine gland hyposecretion (leading to hormone deficiency)

2. Endocrine gland hypersecretion (leading to hormone excess)
3. Tumours (benign or malignant) of endocrine glands
Endocrine disorders are often quite complex, involving a mixed picture of hyposecretion and
hypersecretion because of the feedback mechanisms involved in the endocrine system. For
example, most forms of hyperthyroidism are associated with an excess of thyroid hormone and a low
level of thyroid stimulating hormone.

Endocrine emergencies[edit]
In endocrinology, medical emergencies include diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperosmolar hyperglycemic
state, hypoglycemic coma, acute adrenocortical
insufficiency,phaeochromocytoma crisis, hypercalcemic crisis, thyroid storm, myxoedema
coma and pituitary apoplexy.
[3]
Emergencies arising from decompensated pheochromocytomas or parathyroid adenomas are

sometimes referred for emergency resection when aggressive medical therapies fail to control the
patient's state, however the surgical risks are significant, especially blood pressure lability and the
possibility of cardiovascular collapse after resection (due to a brutal drop in respectively
catecholamines and calcium, which must be compensated with gradual normalization). It remains
debated when emergency surgery is appropriate as opposed to urgent or elective surgery after
continued attempts to stabilize the patient, notably in view of newer and moreefficient medications
and protocols.
