Graves' disease was found in a 41-year-old, married male patient with Klinefelter's syndrome. The patient began having finger tremor 5 years previously, and developed palpitation and weight loss 3 months prior to examination. He had a diffuse goiter, exophthalmos, and atrial fibrillation. Plasma levels of T3, T4 and free T4 were 2.8 ng/ml, 16.6 micrograms/dl and 4.5 ng/dl respectively. [123I] uptake was 53%, and TSH receptor antibody was 75%. Although he had no gynecomastia, his general physical appearance was that of typical eunuchoism. Chromosome studies showed a karyotype of 47,XXY. A diagnosis of Graves' disease associated with Klinefelter's syndrome was made.
