Abstract

The following case of a young mother presenting with post-partum pulmonary oedema, highlights a singular and life-threatening complication of a common condition (thyrotoxicosis). While thyrotoxic heart disease is well described, thyrotoxic storm in the post-partum period associated with dilated cardiomyopathy, congestive cardiac failure and ventricular fibrillation is exceptional.
