We encountered a case of Graves' disease in a pediatric patient who presented with thyroid storm (TS), the onset of which was triggered by rotavirus infection. Rotavirus is commonly associated with severe watery diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and dehydration-particularly in infants and young children. In more severe cases, it can also lead to altered consciousness and seizures. These symptoms can resemble those of TS, even in the absence of pre-existing hyperthyroidism. In cases of hyperthyroidism, these symptoms confirm the criteria for TS. Therefore, it is possible that some cases of TS are triggered and caused by gastrointestinal conditions such as rotavirus infection. Our case highlights the need for further investigation into the potential triggering pathogens in patients with TS to better clarify details regarding the patient's status or disease pathogenesis.
