Abstract

Right heart failure is a clinical syndrome that is influenced by various factors. The incidence of heart failure reaches 5/1,000 population, while the prevalence of heart failure reaches 1-2% of the adult population. Management of the main etiology of heart failure is the main therapy. In some cases, hyperthyroidism is an indirect cause of heart failure, especially in right heart failure. Hyperthyroidism can cause reversible pulmonary hypertension which causes right heart failure, although the underlying mechanism is uncertain at the moment. This study reports a 46-year-old woman who was diagnosed with right heart failure and also had hyperthyroidism. In this case, hyperthyroidism was not detected because there were no typical symptoms in the patient. The patient was given furosemide intravenous, propylthiouracil, and bisoprolol. After clinical improvement, the patient went home with right heart failure in uncontrolled hyperthyroidism as a final diagnosis.

Bahasa Abstract

Gagal jantung kanan merupakan sebuah sindrom klinis yang dipengaruhi oleh berbagai macam faktor. Insiden gagal jantung sendiri mencapai 5/1.000 populasi, sedangkan prevalensi gagal jantung berkisar 1-2% populasi dewasa. Penanganan etiologi utama dari gagal jantung merupakan terapi utama. Pada beberapa kasus, hipertiroid merupakan penyebab tidak langsung gagal jantung, terutama gagal jantung kanan. Hipertiroid dapat menyebabkan hipertensi pulmonal reversibel yang menyebabkan gagal jantung kanan, meskipun hingga saat ini mekanisme yang mendasarinya belum diketahui secara pasti. Studi kasus ini melaporkan perempuan usia 46 tahun yang didiagnosis gagal jantung kanan serta mengalami hipertiroid. Pada kasus ini, awalnya diagnosis hipertiroid tidak terdeteksi karena tidak ada gejala yang khas pada pasien. Selama perawatan pasien mendapatkan furosemid intravena, propiltiourasil, dan bisoprolol. Setelah dirawat beberapa hari, pasien mengalami perbaikan klinis sehingga dipulangkan dengan diagnosis akhir gagal jantung kanan pada hipertiroid yang tidak terkontrol.

Kata Kunci: hipertensi pulmonal, hipertiroid, gagal jantung kanan
