Thyroid dysfunction has an infuence on cardiovascular disease, and is accompanied by cardiovascular complications. Conversely, diseases of the heart and vessels affect thyroid function parameters. Amiodaroneinduced thyroid changes represent a common problem. This article provides an overview of the issue from the perspective of the endocrinologist.

Keywords: thyroid dysfunction; cardiovascular diseases; amiodarone (With PowePoint presentation)
