US Army Health Clinic - Vicenza, Italy.
Background: Transient hyperthyroidism of hyperemesis gravidarum (THHG) is a self-limiting hyperthyroidism occurring in the context of hyperemesis gravidarum.
Methods: A literature search of MEDLINE was undertaken, and a case report of a woman with THHG in pregnancy is described.
Results And Conclusions: Because thyroid function tests cannot distinguish Graves disease from THHG, the diagnosis of THHG rests largely on the concurrent development of hyperemesis and hyperthyroidism and the absence of signs and symptoms of hyperthyroidism before and during pregnancy.
