内容简介：
This volume covers the most recent scientific findings of the syndromes of hormone resistance in the HPT axis, i.e., thyroid hormone resistance and resistance to TSH action. Mechanisms of action of the various hormones, etiopathology of the syndromes, instruments for diagnosis, as well as the difficulties in managing these diseases are covered. In general, these disorders of HPT axis are uncommon and thus difficult to diagnose and treat. As a result, this book is a useful resource to clinicians and helps delineate the clinical flow-chart for both diagnosis and treatment.
