Abstract

Gravis’ thyrotoxicosis is rarely complicated with heart failure. Here in, we present a case of 45 years old female without past medical history of cardiac disease who admitted to our hospital for altered mental status. Hospitalization course complicated with Atrial fibrillation with RVR and symptoms of acute heart failure. Subsequent echocardiogram revealed dilated cardiomyopathy. Labs were concerning about thyroid storm. Patient treated with Methimazole, steroids and Lugols iodine drops for thyroid storm and received appropriate management for heart failure.
