    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Internal Medicine
    • Emergency Medicine

    Background:

    • Endocrine emergencies are rare but critical clinical events.
    • Effective management hinges on swift recognition and intervention.
    • Treatment decisions are frequently made without immediate laboratory confirmation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the importance of understanding pathophysiology in endocrine emergencies.
    • To guide prompt diagnosis and appropriate therapy initiation.
    • To emphasize clinical decision-making in resource-limited settings.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of pathophysiology of acute hormone excess and deficiency states.
    • Analysis of clinical scenarios requiring immediate endocrine management.
