Abstract
The paper represents the results of dynamic investigation of the levels of antithyroid antibodies in female cases of untreated Graves’ disease: the high level of autoantibodies to thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor found by prior examination and the lack of any decrease in the level of this autoantibodies during treatment indicates a high risk of acute condition following thyrostatic therapy.
