We observed three patients in whom carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) developed in association with hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease). The course of one of these patients was marked by resolution of symptoms and electrophysiologic measures of CTS that paralleled the remission of Graves' disease after treatment with radioactive iodine. No other treatment of CTS was required or given. There may be a causal relationship between Graves' disease and CTS.
我们观察到3例腕管综合征(CTS)与甲状腺功能亢进症(格雷夫斯病)相关的患者。其中1例患者的病程特点是,症状缓解以及CTS的电生理指标改善,这些与放射性碘治疗后格雷夫斯病的缓解情况相一致。未对CTS进行其他治疗,也未给予其他治疗。格雷夫斯病与CTS之间可能存在因果关系。
