Subglottic Stenosis After Radioactive Iodine Treatment for Graves' Disease: A Case Report
This case report highlights a temporal association between RAI therapy and the subsequent development of SGS, supported by histopathological findings suggestive of radiation-induced tissue injury. In the absence of other established risk factors, RAI treatment may represent a rare but clinically relevant cause of acquired SGS, a complication not previously reported in the literature.
