A patient with psychomotor retardation secondary to delayed treatment of cretinism developed abnormal dystonic movements in the absence of other signs of toxicity during levothyroxine replacement therapy at a serum thyroxine level of 16 mug./100 ml. The dystonic movements disappeared when the serum thyroxine level fell. The abnormal movements were considered to be related to high thyroxine levels in this patient with pre-existing central nervous system dysfunction.
一名因先天性甲状腺功能减退症治疗延迟而出现精神运动发育迟缓的患者,在左甲状腺素替代治疗期间,血清甲状腺素水平为16微克/100毫升时,在没有其他中毒迹象的情况下出现了异常的张力障碍运动。当血清甲状腺素水平下降时,张力障碍运动消失。在这名已有中枢神经系统功能障碍的患者中,异常运动被认为与高甲状腺素水平有关。
