Graves hastalığının nadir bir prezentasyonu: bilateral gode bırakan bacak ödemi

Abstract

Graves’ disease has many extrathyroidal manifestations. In the literature, bilateral pretibial pitting edema in hyperthyroidism cases has been reported in a few case reports. In the current presentation, we report a case of Graves who had leg and hand swelling for two weeks and whose findings regressed rapidly with treatment. Diffuse, bilateral pitting pretibial edema, which may occur due to many etiologies, should also be considered in the differential diagnosis of hyperthyroidism.
