AbstractNeonatal hyperthyroidism is rare disorder due to the passage of thyroid receptor antibodies (TRBs) from the mother to the fetus. Neonatal thyrotoxicosis can present in several ways and if unrecognized, can be fatal. We present a preterm neonate who developed fetal hydrops and tricuspid regurgitation in utero. The mother had a history of treated Grave's disease. The infant responded to maternal treatment antenatally and postnatal anti-thyroid treatment, with resolution of both the tricuspid regurgitation and hydrops. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of tricuspid regurgitation associated with fetal and neonatal thyrotoxicosis. Our case also highlights the importance of obtaining a detailed and accurate history in a mother with previous Grave's disease, even if treated.

Abstract A 30-year-old female patient with a past medical history of pernicious anaemia presented with pleuritic chest pain, palpitations, fatigue, coryzal symptoms and a high temperature. She was hypoxic and tachycardic and was extensively investigated as well as aggressively treated. A type 1 ‘gut feeling’ assessment by the admitting medical registrar made the diagnosis possible as thyroid function tests were grossly deranged and pointed to Grave’s disease causing heart failure, complicated by pneumonia. The patient was discharged on carbimazole, antibiotics and beta blockers. She has now been swapped onto propylthiouracil and is under active follow up
