  • Title: Thyroid storm and myxedema coma.
    Author: Nicoloff JT.
    Journal: Med Clin North Am; 1985 Sep; 69(5):1005-17. PubMed ID: 2865414.
    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.
