THYROTOXIC PERIODIC PARALYSIS: A CASE REPORT

SUMMARYA case of thyrotoxic periodic paralysis in a 24-year-old male with hyperthyroidism is presented. Clinical manifestations included progressive symmetrical weakness that led to flaccid paralysis due to hypokalemia with concurrent thyrotoxicosis. Intravenous administration of potas- sium chloride resulted in complete regression of the symptoms of muscle weakness and paralysis. Hypokalemic periodic paralysis is an uncommon complication of thyrotoxicosis, which primarily occurs in Orientals, with a high male predominance, and has rarely been described in Caucasians.
