HISTORY AND ADMISSION FINDINGS: A 41-year-old woman had been treated with an antibiotic for a sore throat and a tender neck. Later, moderate hyperthyroidism developed and was treated with antithyroid drugs. She presented herself for further work-up when neck pain and malaise persisted. On palpation, the thyroid was tender and firm, but not enlarged. Signs and symptoms indicated moderate hyperthyroidism.
INVESTIGATIONS: Laboratory findings included suppressed TSH, elevated thyroid hormones, and both elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate and CRP. On ultrasound, the thyroid was found to be of normal size but severely hypoechoic. A thyroid scan showed low uptake of technetium.
TREATMENT AND COURSE: The findings supported the diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis. Prednisolone treatment provided relief of pain within 2 days. The patient later developed hypothyroidism suggestive of Hashimoto's thyroiditis and required thyroxin supplementation.
