Abstract
ABSTRACT
The case of a 42 year old female with diabetes insipidus, exophthalmic goiter, lipodystrophy and amenorrhoea is described. The association of diabetes insipidus and hyperthyroidism is not frequently observed and only a few cases have been reported in the literature.
Attention is drawn to what happened to this patient during the Carter-Robbins test and to her death at the end of it.
