A clinical case of severe Graves’ disease

Abstract

Thyroid dysfunction, both in terms of the type of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, illustrates the diversity of the clinical picture, which mimics various diseases from almost all systems and, therefore, timely diagnosis of thyroid diseases can often be difficult. This paper describes a clinical case of HD with the development of a thyrotoxic crisis. Late diagnosis led to the development of such a severe complication associated with high mortality.
