Thyroid storm is a possibly life-threatening complication of Graves' disease, where the thyroid produces an extreme amount of hormones that cause dangerously high heart rate, blood pressure, & temperature.

Potassium iodide blocks iodine uptake in the thyroid gland and the synthesis of thyroid hormone. It decreases the overall blood flow to the thyroid and may be used in preparation for surgery.

Prior to undergoing surgery for Graves' disease, your thyroid hormone levels will need to be controlled to minimize the risk of thyroid storm during surgery.

Thyroid cancer is rare in Graves' disease, occurring in less than 2% of the cases. It is more common when there are thyroid nodules seen on ultrasound. #GravesDiseaseAwarenessMonth #GravesDisease #GDAM2022 @GDATF @AmThyroidAssn @TheAACE
In patients with Graves’ disease and large thyroid nodules or a big goiter, surgery may be the best treatment option. #GravesDiseaseAwarenessMonth #GravesDisease #GDAM2022 @GDATF @AmThyroidAssn @TheAACE
Since the thyroid needs iodine to function, radioactive iodine gets taken up into thyroid cells. The radiation slowly destroys the overactive thyroid cells over a few weeks to months. #GravesDiseaseAwarenessMonth #GravesDisease #GDAM2022 @GDATF @AmThyroidAssn @TheAACE
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should not be treated with radioactive iodine (RAI). RAI harms the fetus’ thyroid gland and can be transferred to the baby in breast milk. #GravesDiseaseAwarenessMonth #GravesDisease #GDAM2022 @GDATF @AmThyroidAssn @TheAACE
