Útdráttur:

Our objective is to report a case of thyrotoxicosis following pituitary adenectomy for Cushing0 s disease, the only pediatric case to our knowledge. No thyroid antibodies were detected, and the thyrotoxicosis was successfully treated for 3 months with no relapse after 5 years of follow-up. The cause of thyrotoxicosis remains unknown.
