Abstract
Pancytopenia is defined as a reduction in red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, and can pose as a diagnostic challenge due to the multitude of causes. Myxedema coma is the manifestation of severe untreated hypothyroidism. This case report presents a rare instance of myxedema coma-associated pancytopenia in a 53-year-old man with a history of untreated hypothyroidism. The patient presented with altered mental status and vital instability, and on further workup was found to have pancytopenia. During his hospital stay his symptomatic hypothyroidism was identified, and he was treated with intravenous levothyroxine, hydrocortisone, and supportive care. The patient's clinical status improved gradually, with normalized blood counts upon discharge. This case underscores the significance of considering myxedema coma in the differential diagnosis of pancytopenia, especially in older patients with limited healthcare access. Increased awareness of this association can aid clinicians in timely diagnosis and management, preventing potential complications associated with untreated hypothyroidism.
