Thoracic inlet compression due to amiodarone induced goitre.

A Samanta, G R Jones, A C Burden, W W Barrie.   

Abstract

We report a case of amiodarone induced toxic goitre, presenting with thoracic inlet obstruction which required surgical intervention. Though thyrotoxicosis caused by amiodarone is recognised, to our knowledge thoracic inlet compression has not been previously described.
