ABSTRACT

La vacunación contra el SARS-CoV-2 no está exenta de efectos adversos. Se presenta dos casos de afectación endocrina asociada a la vacunación por la COVID-19. Mujer de 46 años que, luego de la primera dosis, presentó fiebre persistente y signos de tirotoxicosis, tras el diagnóstico de tiroiditis subaguda asociada a vacunación por la COVID-19, el cuadro remitió con el uso de corticoides. Varón de 71 años, que luego de la vacunación por la COVID-19, presentó hipoglicemias hiperinsulinemicas, con resultado positivo de anticuerpos antiinsulina. Se le diagnosticó con una hipoglicemia autoinmune asociada a la vacunación por la COVID-19 y recibió tratamiento con prednisona, controlando los episodios de hipoglicemia. En conclusión, las enfermedades endocrinas asociadas a vacunación por la COVID-19 son extremadamente raras y su detección oportuna permite su tratamiento adecuado.


SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is not free of adverse effects. We present two cases of endocrine involvement associated with COVID-19 vaccination. A 46-year-old woman who, after receiving the first COVID-19 vaccination dose, presented persistent fever and signs of thyrotoxicosis after being diagnosed with subacute thyroiditis associated with COVID-19 vaccination; the condition remitted with the use of corticoids. A 71-year-old male, who after COVID-19 vaccination, presented hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, testing positive for anti-insulin antibodies; he was diagnosed with autoimmune hypoglycemia associated with COVID-19 vaccination and received treatment with prednisone, controlling the episodes of hypoglycemia. In conclusion, endocrine diseases associated with COVID-19 vaccination are extremely rare and their timely detection allows adequate treatment.
