Abstract:
Cutaneous manifestations of thyroid disease are protean in nature and can be divided into specific lesions such as the thyroglossal duct cyst and cutaneous metastases from thyroid malignancy, nonspecific signs secondary to thyroid hormone imbalance, and associated dermatologic and systemic disorders. This review represents a summary and update of thyroid disease and the skin.
