摘要：

Childhood cases of myxedema coma are extremely rare. We report a case of a 5-year-old girl transferred to a tertiary care pediatric emergency department with hypoxemia and alteredmental status and diagnosed with severe hypothyroidism and myxedema coma in the setting of acute influenza infection. Although it is rare, myxedema coma must remain in the differential diagnosis for altered mental status and organ dysfunction in the pediatric population.
