A case of repeated episodes of hypoventilatory respiratory failure accompanied with primary hypothyroidism was reported. A 76-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital due to both disturbance of consciousness and respiratory failure. A diagnosis of primary hypothyroidism complicated with hypoventilatory respiratory failure deterioration due to respiratory infection was made. Supplemental therapy of thyroid hormones improved her general condition, but respiratory failure recurred after interruption of a replacement drug. Cases of unexplained respiratory failure should be differentiated from respiratory failure induced by hypothyroidism.
