Abstract EN
Hypothyroidism is common, with an extreme manifestation of myxedema coma if untreated.
Hematologic consequences of myxedema coma include mild leukopenia and anemia, rarely pancytopenia.
We present a patient with typical symptoms of myxedema coma, but found to be pancytopenic, with sustained response to levothyroxine and blood transfusion for anemia.
