Resumen
El coma mixedematoso es severo y amenazante para la vida. Esta condición representa un estado de hipofunción tiroidea de larga duración, no reconocida o mal controlada. Ocasionalmente estos pacientes reciben primero un diagnóstico de trastorno mental. Se presenta un caso de psicosis aguda en una mujer de 51 años, sin historia de trastorno mental como manifestación inicial de mixedema. En pacientes con psicosis aguda, la evaluación de la función tiroidea es imperativa. El tratamiento incluye el reemplazo de la hormona tiroidea y antipsicóticos a corto plazo. Es crucial considerar la etiología tiroidea en casos de psicosis agudas.Citas
