Abstract:
We report the second case of intraalveolar haemorrhage associated with an autoimmune thyrotoxicosis. While intraalveolar haemorrhage was not recurrent since 7 years with corticosteroid therapy, a relapse occurred when we began the treatment for an autoimmune thyrotoxicosis. We discuss the link between intraalveolar haemorrhage and autoimmune thyrotoxicosis or its treatment.
