Abstract

Periodic paralysis associated with thyrotoxicosis is characterized by intermittent flaccid paralysis of the skeletal muscle.

The underlying pathophysiology of the syndrome is not yet to be well characterized and remains controversial, we report a case of hypokalemic periodic paralysis presenting a spontaneous recovery.
