Coming soonMyxedema refers to an advanced clinical state of severe hypothyroidism, as well as the characteristic dermatologic change resulting from profound thyroid hormone deficiency.
It primarily impacts the endocrine and integumentary systems, frequently affecting adult populations—especially older individuals and women with long-standing or inadequately managed thyroid disease.
Pathophysiologically, sustained thyroid hormone insufficiency promotes widespread interstitial accumulation of hydrophilic glycosaminoglycans, leading to mucinous nonpitting edema, facial puffiness, coarse dry skin, and broad metabolic slowing.
Without intervention, this systemic hypometabolic state can deteriorate into myxedema coma, a critical medical emergency marked by hypothermia, profound lethargy or altered sensorium, bradycardia, and multiorgan decompensation.
