Abstract

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: The development of Graves disease (GD) after subacute thyroiditis (SAT) is rare, with approximately 31 reported cases, of which only 5 occurred in men. We describe a case of GD diagnosed based on newly elevated thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) receptor autoantibody (TRAb) levels after SAT.
