SQUMJ-Sultan Qaboos University Medical Journal. 2008; 8 (1): 75-77
en Inglés | IMEMR | ID: emr-90396
ABSTRACT
We describe the first case of Graves' disease occurring at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Oman, in a patient who was under treatment with interferon alfa for HCV infection. INF-? is now being widely used to treat patients with a variety of disorders including infection with hepatitis C virus. Clinical thyroid disease, hypo and hyperthyroidism can occur in up to 15% of patients. We emphasize the need for thyroid function screening before and during therapy to identify patients early in the course of their disease
