  • Title: Apathetic thyrotoxicosis.
    Author: Arnold BM, Casal G, Higgins HP.
    Journal: Can Med Assoc J; 1974 Nov 02; 111(9):957-8. PubMed ID: 4420812.
    Abstract:
    Apathetic thyrotoxicosis is an atypical though not rare manifestation of hyperthyroidism. The cardinal features are apathy and depression, as opposed to hyperkinesis and mental alertness in the usual thyrotoxic patient, and are unassociated with the usual signs and symptoms of hyperthyroidism, making the diagnosis difficult. We report three cases of apathetic thyrotoxicosis seen during one year.
