Tóm tắt

Very few cases of thyrotoxic psychoses have been reported during the last twenty years. Recent authoritative reviews on the management of thyrotoxicosis and its complications (Ingbar, 1966; Trotter, 1967) scarcely mention psychotic reactions. It seems that such conditions have become increasingly rare since the advent of modern anti-thyroid treatment. The present report attempts to summarize what is known about these disorders, and describes the clinical features, treatment and subsequent course of a schizophrenia-like psychosis which developed during thyroid crisis.
