Diseases, Illnesses & Ailments Starting from Letter T
- Thrombocytopenia Purpura
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a bleeding condition in which the blood doesn't clot as it is supposed to. This is because of a low number of blood cells called platelets. [read more] - Thrombocytopenic Purpura, Autoimmune
Autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura (or ATP) is a rare blood disorder where a low number of platelets prevents the blood's ability to clot and results in bleeding into the skin and mucous membranes. [read more] - Thrombocytosis
Thrombocytosis is the presence of high platelet counts in the blood, and can be either reactive or primary. [read more] - Thromboembolism
Thromboembolism is the medical condition whereby there is a formation of clot or thrombos is the blood vessels that breaks loose and carried by bloodstream to plug another vesses in the lungs, brain,gastrointestinal tract, kidneys and leg. [read more] - Thrombophlebitis
Thrombophlebitis or phlebitis is a condition in which a vein is inflamed due to a blood clot. [read more] - Thrombosis
It is the development of a clot or thrombus inside the blood vessel, blocking the flow of blood through the circulatory system. The general term is thromboembolism which describes both thrombosis and its primary complication that is embolisation. [read more] - Thrombotic Microangiopathy, Familial
The term thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) refers to a lesion of vessel wall thickening (mainly arterioles or capillaries), intraluminal platelet thrombosis, and partial or complete obstruction of the vessel lumina. Depending on whether renal or brain lesions prevail, two pathologically indistinguishable but somehow clinically different entities have been distinguished: the hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and the thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). Injury to the endothelial cell is the central and likely inciting factor in the sequence of events resulting to TMA. [read more] - Thrush
Candidiasis, commonly known as yeast infection or thrush, is a fungal infection (mycosis) of any of the Candida species, of which Candida albicans is the most common. [read more] - Thymic Carcinoma
Thymic carcinoma is a rare type of thymus gland cancer. It often spreads, has a high risk of recurrence, and has a poor survival rate. Thymic carcinoma is divided into subtypes, depending on the types of cells in which the cancer developed. [read more] - Thymoma
In medicine (oncology), thymoma is a tumor progressing from the thymus. It is made up of any type of thymic epithelial cell as well as lymphocytes that are typically abundant and probably not neoplastic. [read more] - Thymus Cancer
Thymus cancer is a type of cancer that usually affects the small organ in the upper chest just below the breast bone known as the thymus. [read more] - Thyroglossal Tract Cyst
A thyroglossal cyst is a fibrous cyst that develops from a persistent thyroglossal duct [read more] - Thyroid Cancer
Thyroid cancer refers to one of four kinds of malignant tumors of the thyroid gland: papillary, follicular, medullary and anaplastic. [read more] - Thyroid Carcinoma, Follicular
Follicular thyroid carcinoma (abbreviated to FTC) is a well-differentiated tumor. In fact, FTC mirrors that of the normal microscopic pattern of the thyroid. FTC originates in follicular cells and is the second most commonly-found cancer of the thyroid after papillary carcinoma. [read more] - Thyroid Carcinoma, Papillary
Papillary carcinoma is the more commonly-found and well-differentiated cancer of the thyroid. Papillary/follicular carcinoma should be considered a variant of the papillary thyroid carcinoma (mixed form). Despite its well-differentiated traits, papillary carcinoma may be overtly or minimally invasive. In fact, these tumors may spread easily to other organs inside the body. Papillary carcinoma appears as an irregularly-shaped solid or cystic mass in a normal thyroid parenchyma. [read more] - Thyroiditis
It is generally known to be the swelling of the thyroid gland which is located on the front of the neck below the Adam's apple. The most common kind of thyroiditis is the Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The other kinds are postpartum thyroiditis, subacute thyroiditis, silent thyroiditis, drug-induced thyroiditis, radiation-induced thryroiditis and acute thyroiditis. [read more] - Tic Douleureux
Tic Douleureux is another name for short-lived trigeminal neuralgia. This condition still affects the trigeminal nerve, but rather than feeling painful sensations for long periods of time, the pain only lasts for a few minutes. [read more] - Tic Douloureux
Tic douloureux or trigeminal neuralgia is a condition in which the trigeminal nerve function is disrupted. Sensation from the face to the brain is carried by the trigeminal nerve. [read more] - Tick Bites
Usually caused by ticks where in it's the general name for small arachnids in the Ixodoidea superfamily together with other mites that comprises the Acarina. [read more] - Tick Paralysis
Tick paralysis is the only tick-borne disease that is not due to an infectious organism. The illness is the result of a neurotoxin produced in the tick's salivary gland. After prolonged attachment, the engorged tick releases the toxin to its host. [read more]
