Abstract
Objective:Following radioiodine (RI) therapy for multinodular goiter (MNG), 4% to 5% of patients are reported to develop Graves' hyperthyroidism. To show a new protocol for the administration of RI in MNG and to illustrate an infrequent adverse event observed after the RI dose.Methods:A 70-year-old
