Abstract
This article describes the clinical recognition of, and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the development of, thyroid storm and myxedema coma. Effective therapeutic management of these conditions depends on a clear understanding of the physiological adaptations occurring in hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, and of how precipitating events may produce these decompensated states.Entities:
