Psychiatric symptoms in endocrine diseases. Keys to identifying the underlying disorder.

Several important points should be considered regarding psychiatric symptoms in endocrine disorders. The presence of cognitive deficits in a patient presenting with anxiety, depression, or another apparently "functional" psychiatric complaint should raise the index of suspicion of organic etiology, with endocrine disorders high on the list. Psychiatric symptoms secondary to endocrine disturbance generally reverse, albeit slowly, with treatment of the primary hormonal abnormality. When significant disruption of cognitive functioning is evident, residual deficits may develop. Treatment with psychotropic agents for symptomatic relief of psychiatric complaints should be undertaken with great caution in patients with endocrine disorders.

The dysplastic naevus syndrome and endocrine disease.

Members of two different families were found to have the dysplastic naevus syndrome and coexistent endocrine abnormalities. The dysplastic naevus syndrome is probably inherited as an autosomal dominant trait and has been associated with other primary malignancies. This is the first time that it has been described in association with endocrine abnormalities.
