Abstract (2. Language): 
Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis is an uncommon complication of hyperthyroidism and characterized with the attacks of hypokalemia and muscle weakness. A male patient admitted to our emergency clinics had intermittent weakness in his upper and lower extremities which was resolving spontaneously in a few hours. Patient was diagnosed as thyrotoxic periodic paralysis depending upon laboratory examination and history. The epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation and therapy of this relatively rare disease were reviewed.
