Article Synopsis
- Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) like pembrolizumab have notable clinical advantages but can cause serious side effects known as immune-related adverse events (irAEs), affecting various organ systems.
- A case study of a female patient revealed that she experienced myxedema coma (MC) and adrenal insufficiency (AI) four months after stopping treatment with pembrolizumab, necessitating treatment with levothyroxine and hydrocortisone.
- This highlights the need for careful monitoring of patients on ICIs for potential endocrine disorders, as they can lead to severe health complications if not detected early.
