A Retrospective Analysis of Thyroid Storm at a Tertiary Care Center in Northern India

In our study, Graves' disease was the underlying cause of thyrotoxicosis storm in all the patients. A predominant cardiovascular dysfunction, followed by gastrointestinal dysfunction, was the most common presentation. Notably, central nervous system (CNS) dysfunction was observed less frequently and with mild severity than reported in other studies. Thyroid storm is a potentially lethal presentation of thyrotoxicosis; early diagnosis and prompt treatment are lifesaving.
