In 189 of 334 patients, who had been treated with fractionated doses of radioiodine for Graves' disease 7-15 years ago, the serum concentrations of triiodothyronine have been estimated in additition to the following parameters: Protein bound 127-iodine (PB-127-I), free thyroxine index, cholesterol- and TSH-level in serum, tendon reflex time and clinical index according to Billewitz et al. (1969). In forty-one of the 189 sera the free T4 (AFT4) and free T3 (AFT3) concentrations were measured as well. The following hormonal and clinical patterns were observed: (1) Euthyroidism, with all parameters within the normal range in 148 patients (equals 78-4%). (2) Hypothyroidism with low serum T3, PBI, AFT4, AFT3 and elevated TSH six subjects (equals 3-2%). (3) Persistent hyperthyroidism with increased thyroid hormone concentrations and low TSH in seven cases (equals 3-7%). (4) In twenty-eight clinically euthyroid patients (equals 14-8%) TSH was elevated with normal PBI and AFT4. Twenty of these subjects had a low normal T3 and in nine the T3 was clearly in the hypothyroid range (40 plus or minus 12 mug/dl). (5) The constellation of normal T3, low T4 and elevated TSH, which has been frequently found after radioiodine therapy, has been seen in only moderate form in ten cases.
