Abstract Hyperthyroidism due to gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition. Optimal perioperative management is crucial for favorable outcomes and prevention of thyroid storm. However, scarce data exist defining the ideal approach to this complex clinical presentation. This case report describes a first-time pregnant 32-year-old woman who was found to be biochemically hyperthyroid in the context of a 10-week gestation molar pregnancy. Despite her biochemical values, the patient remained clinically asymptomatic of her thyroid disease. The Gynecology and Anesthesiology services urgently consulted Endocrinology, and empiric treatment for prevention of potential impending thyroid storm was initiated prior to operative uterine evacuation. After 2 uneventful dilation and curettages with chemotherapy and a transient prescription of antithyroid medication, the patient normalized her human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) level and recovered to biochemical euthyroidism. Other than a pruritic rash that may have been due to propylthiouracil, the patient's hyperthyroidism improved without further complications. This case highlights the importance of recognizing the link between GTD and thyrotoxicosis to allow for timely initiation of appropriate preoperative treatment. Fortunately, the multidisciplinary approach facilitated management to prevent evolution to thyroid storm.
