Abstract

Background

Because of a scant report, it is little known that thyroid storms can occur after trauma, even in adolescence. Significantly, this increases the risk of delaying diagnosis resulting in life-threatening.

Case Presentation

A 13-year-old girl was admitted to the emergency department after a traffic accident. Despite receiving comprehensive trauma care, the patient developed hyperthermia and tachycardia that did not respond to temperature management therapy. On the 10th day of her admission, she was diagnosed with a thyroid storm. Treatment for thyroid storm was initiated; thereby, her condition was totally improved.

Conclusion

We experienced a case of an adolescent girl, who developed a thyroid storm during the treatment of trauma and could save her life. Clinicians should consider thyroid storm in post-traumatic hyperthermia and tachycardia patients, even in children.

与创伤相关的青少年甲状腺风暴：病例报告。

背景：甲状腺风暴可发生在创伤后，甚至是青少年时期，但由于这方面的报道很少，人们对此知之甚少。这大大增加了延误诊断导致生命危险的风险：一名13岁女孩因交通事故被送入急诊科。尽管接受了全面的创伤护理，但患者仍出现了高热和心动过速，体温管理治疗无效。入院第 10 天，她被诊断为甲状腺风暴。我们开始了甲状腺风暴的治疗，因此她的病情得到了完全改善：我们经历了一例少女在治疗外伤过程中出现甲状腺风暴的病例，这可能会挽救她的生命。临床医生应该考虑创伤后高热和心动过速患者的甲状腺风暴，即使是儿童也不例外。
