Abstract:
Thyrotoxicosis is a well-recognized cause of myopathy, but rarely presents as acute flaccid quadriparesis. We report a 25-year-old female with underlying uncontrolled Graves\' disease who presented with thyroid storm and acute flaccid quadriparesis due to thyrotoxic myopathy. She showed marked clinical improvement with subsequent normalization of her thyroid parameters. Besides highlighting this rare association, this report underscores the importance of considering thyrotoxic myopathy in the evaluation of patients with acute flaccid quadriparesis.
摘要:
甲状腺毒症是公认的肌病病因,但很少表现为急性弛缓性四肢轻瘫。我们报告了一名25岁的女性,患有未受控制的Graves\'病,由于甲状腺毒性肌病而出现甲状腺风暴和急性弛缓性四肢轻瘫。她表现出明显的临床改善,随后甲状腺参数恢复正常。除了强调这种罕见的关联,本报告强调了在评估急性弛缓性四肢轻瘫患者时考虑甲状腺毒性肌病的重要性.
