title: Congestive heart failure in thyrotoxicosis.
abstract: Congestive heart failure due to thyrotoxicosis without preexisting heart disease is rare. Indeed, the very existence of a thyrotoxic heart disease has been much discussed. We describe a 44-year-old woman in whom thyrotoxicosis was found to be the sole cause of congestive heart failure.
