Unilateral Grave’s Hastalığı: Olgu sunumu

Graves hastalığı; hipertiroidi, diffüz guatr, infiltratif oftalmopati, daha nadir olarak infiltratif dermatopati ve tiroid akropatisi ile karekterize otoimmün bir tiroid hastalığıdır. Genellikle her iki tiroid lobunu da etkilemesine rağmen, tek taraflı tutulum nadir olarak bildirilmiştir. Kliniğimizde tanı konulan, sintigrafide tek taraflı tutulum gösteren (diğer lob ve isthmus agenezik-tiroid hemiagenezisi) nadir görülen bir olgu olan unilateral graves hastalığı güncel literatür eşliğinde sunulmuştur
