Abstract
The relationships between the thyroid and the heart are close and complex. In rare cases, hyperthyroidism induced by Graves' disease can be complicated by an acute myocarditis, which may be life-threatening. We report the case of a 41-year-old woman with Graves' disease not controlled by antithyroid drugs, hospitalized for odynophagia, palpitations due to atrial fibrillation, diffuse ST elevation on ECG and an increase in cardiac troponin. Coronary angiography was normal, cardiac MRI confirmed acute myocarditis. The evolution was favorable after a phase marked by supraventricular and ventricular rhythm disorders. The diagnostic and therapeutic challenge of this association are discussed, with a review of the literature.
