Graves′ Disease With Pretibial Myxoedema

Abstract

A 45 year old man presented with asymptomatic skin coloured nodules, erythmatous plaques on both legs along with features of thyrotoxicosis. Investigations confirmed the diagnosis of Graves’ disease with pretibial mayxoedema. The patient became euthyroid with carbimazole and the skin lesions responded partially to antithyoroid treatment and local corticosteroids.
