1</a>&#41;&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We have reported here a very rare case of subacute thyroiditis transforming into Graves&#8217; disease in an elderly female&#46; Subacute thyroiditis &#40;SAT&#41; is a self-limiting inflammation of the thyroid&#44; presumably of viral etiology&#44; and characterized by a painful goiter and an elevation of systemic inflammatory markers&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> The clinical course is characterized by an inflammatory phase with leakage of follicular contents resulting in an early hyperthyroid state usually lasting 2&#8211;8 weeks&#44; followed by thyroidal depletion and a subsequent hypothyroid state&#44; with eventual recovery&#46; Complete recovery is the norm&#46; The diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis is clinically based and our patient&#39;s typical symptoms&#44; elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate&#44; and response to systemic corticosteroid make a convincing diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis&#46; Interestingly&#44; thyroid function tests performed on initial presentation were normal&#44; which could be seen in some patients&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> Rather than transitioning into a hypothyroid phase&#44; the patient had persistent hyperthyroidism at 15 weeks after presentation&#44; despite corticosteroid treatment&#44; suggesting other causes of hyperthyroidism&#46; The high titers of TSI and thyroid hypervascularity confirmed Graves&#8217; disease&#46; It is important to diagnose Graves&#8217; disease in a timely manner because treatment of Graves&#8217; disease is very effective but different from that for subacute thyroiditis&#44; as shown in this case&#46; Although we cannot exactly pinpoint the transition from subacute thyroiditis to Graves&#8217; disease&#44; it probably occurred at 2 months after initial presentation&#44; considering that the hyperthyroid phase of subacute thyroiditis usually lasts 2&#8211;8 weeks&#46; The patient&#39;s poor response to corticosteroid also suggests a different pathophysiology from that of subacute thyroiditis which usually responds to corticosteroid very promptly&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> In Graves&#8217; disease&#44; although corticosteroids inhibit T4 to T3 conversion&#44; they usually do not change T4 and TSH levels&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> Thus prolonged requirement of corticosteroids in a patient presenting with subacute thyroiditis should also raise the suspicion of Graves&#8217; disease&#46; The mechanism for Graves&#8217; disease following subacute thyroiditis is usually postulated as that the destructive process and release of autoantigens in subacute thyroiditis can trigger autoimmune disease&#44; such as Graves&#8217; disease&#44; in genetically predisposed individuals&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3&#44;4</span></a> As Graves&#8217; disease is much less common in elderly patient&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> the Graves&#8217; disease immediately following her subacute thyroiditis in this 79-year-old patient may be indeed triggered by the latter&#46;</p><span id="sec0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0005">Conflict of interest</span><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors have no conflict of interest to disclose&#46;</p></span></span>"
