Diaz R et al. - A 43-year-old man with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the base of tongue was treated with induction chemotherapy followed by intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). Within 20 days post-treatment, the patient developed clinical symptoms highly suggestive of hyperthyroidism. Two and one half months after completion of therapy, the patient developed severe thyrotoxicosis, which, in retrospect, appears to have met the criteria for thyroid storm.
