Gynaecomastia is a well-recognized manifestation of thyrotoxicosis occurring in a widely variable percentage. Some studies have reported the percentage to be high as 40% while others report it being around 10%. The variation can be attributed to the difference in the criteria used to define gynae-comaslia or racial factors. However, thyrotoxicosis presenting with gynaceomastia as an intial manifestation is very rare. Only handful case reports are found in literature. Here we present a case of 35-year-old Indian male, with thyrotoxcosis who presented initially with painful bilateral gynaceomastia.
男性乳房发育是甲状腺毒症的一种公认表现，其发生率差异很大。一些研究报告该比例高达40%，而其他研究报告约为10%。这种差异可归因于定义男性乳房发育的标准不同或种族因素。然而，以男性乳房发育为首发表现的甲状腺毒症非常罕见。文献中仅发现少数病例报告。在此，我们报告一例35岁的印度男性甲状腺毒症患者，最初表现为双侧疼痛性男性乳房发育。
