| Core Tip |
Pretibial myxedema (PTM) is an extrathyroidal, dermatological manifestation of Graves’ disease. And PTM may be associated with autoimmunity. Local glucocorticoid therapy is the most common and effective option for PTM. However, any difference in efficacy between the external use of a glucocorticoid ointment and intralesional glucocorticoid is unclarified. Our experience with this patient suggests that multipoint subcutaneous injections of a long-acting glucocorticoid and topical glucocorticoid ointment application are safe, effective, and convenient treatments. However, the topical application of a glucocorticoid ointment is a more convenient treatment for patients with PTM. |
