[The special case. Thyrogenic acropachy].

Thyroid acropachy is a typical, though rare complication, of Graves' disease. It is seen in about 1% patients, often after a course of several years. It may occur while the patient is euthyroid, hyper- or hypothyroid. In most cases it is part of a syndrome including exophthalmos and pretibial myxedema. We describe the course of a patient's disease and discuss the criteria of diagnosis as well as the possible pathogenetic role of antithyroid immunoglobulins in thyroid acropachy.
