Abstract
The Authors describe a case of urticaria associated with
autoimmune thyroiditis in a 13 years old girl. Although this association
is not frequent among children, it should be investigated in all
cases of chronic urticaria. Physical examination, personal and family
history could be the first tools to suspect an autoimmune thyroiditis.
Some considerations on the treatment of subclinical hypothyroidism
are discussed.
