[Thyrotoxic crisis with cardiogenic shock]

Thyrotoxic crisis is a rare, life-threatening condition requiring rapid recognition and close multidisciplinary management. In this case report, we present a 59-year-old woman who developed cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest despite intensive therapy. Emergency thyroidectomy was performed with extracorporal membrane oxygenation prepared as rescue support, but postoperative collapse persisted, and she died shortly after. The case underscores the critical importance of early identification and coordinated interdisciplinary care.
