Popis: | Pomalidomide is an immunomodulatory drug used for relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Hypothyroidism is an uncommon side effect of pomalidomide. We present a 70-year-old male patient with RRMM on daratumumab, pomalidomide and dexamethasone, who presented with 2 weeks of fatigue. Laboratory values showed sodium of 120 mEq/L, plasma osmolarity of 256 mOsm/kg, urine osmolarity of 648 mOsm/kg and urine sodium of 93 mEq/L. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulation test was within normal limits. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) was 88.6 IU/mL (0.380–4.700 IU/mL), total triiodothyronine (TT3) |
