Graves' disease following successful treatment of severe aplastic anaemia with antilymphocyte globulin
Clinical and Laboratory Haematology
|April 10, 1999
This case report is only the third report of thyroid dysfunction following the administration of anti-lymphocyte globulin for severe aplastic anaemia. It is the first report of the development of Grave's disease. We discuss a possible mechanism by which this may occur and highlight instances of other immune-mediated diseases occurring in ALG treated patients.
