Summary

Thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) deficiency is rare, especially with Graves' disease. This case highlights how TBG deficiency can lead to misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment in patients with thyroid disorders.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • Thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) deficiency is a rare genetic condition affecting thyroid hormone transport.
  • Most individuals with abnormal TBG levels are euthyroid, meaning they have normal thyroid function.
  • Co-occurrence of Graves' disease and TBG deficiency is exceptionally rare in medical literature.
