Acute thyroid swelling with severe hypothyroid myxoedema after COVID-19 vaccination.

ABSTRACT

The SARS-CoV-2 virus can trigger thyroid dysfunction. Thyroid dysfunctions after COVID-19 vaccination have been rarely reported. We report the case of overt hypothyroidism in a 61-year-old woman seen after BNT162b2-mRNA vaccination. This case underlines the fact that thyroid function should also be monitored after COVID-19 vaccination, especially in at-risk subjects.
