Abstract

The article studies the clinical course and characteristics of vascular complications in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 on a background of diminished thyroid function. We analyzed the prevalence and severity of diabetic retinopathy, angiopathy of lower extremities vessels and nephropathy in patients with concomitant hypothyroidism of various degrees. It was established that patients with diabetes type 2 had significantly higher severity of vascular complications on the background of both manifest and subclinical hypothyroidism.
