Abstract

Hypothyroidism is an endocrine disorder which occurs due to a deficiency of thyroid hormones. Hoffmann's syndrome is a rare complication of hypothyroidism - presenting as hypothyroid myopathy. We describe the case of a 20-year-old lactating female, known to have hypothyroidism (diagnosed during her pregnancy and having discontinued treatment following delivery), presenting with complaints of pain, swelling of bilateral calf muscles with cramps in bilateral lower limbs. Symptoms of muscle pseudohypertrophy with muscle stiffness are relatively rare in subclinical hypothyroidism and it is important to identify and diagnose this rare condition, and initiate appropriate treatment.

亚临床甲状腺功能减退症的霍夫曼综合征

甲状腺功能减退症是一种由于缺乏甲状腺激素而导致的内分泌失调症。霍夫曼综合征是甲状腺功能减退症的一种罕见并发症，表现为甲状腺功能减退性肌病。我们描述了这样一个病例：一名 20 岁的哺乳期女性患者，已知患有甲状腺功能减退症（在怀孕期间确诊，分娩后停止治疗），主诉双侧小腿肌肉疼痛、肿胀，双下肢抽筋 1 天。肌肉假性肥大伴肌肉僵硬的症状在亚临床甲状腺功能减退症中较为罕见，因此，识别和诊断这种罕见病症并采取适当治疗非常重要。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
