Localized manifestations of subacute thyroiditis presenting as solitary transient cold thyroid nodules. A report of 11 patients.

Abstract:

:Eleven patients, each with a painful solitary cold nodule of the thyroid were evaluated. All patients had subacute thyroiditis associated with neck pain and tenderness. Despite elevated sedimentation rate and increased thyroglobulin levels, nine of the patients were euthyroid, and I-131 uptake was normal in six. In all patients, thyroid scintigraphy demonstrated a solitary cold nodule that resolved regardless of anti-inflammatory therapy. Granulomatous subacute thyroiditis is characterized by decreased I-131 uptake accompanied by transient hyperthyroidism. The uncommon localized variant of this entity may present with a painful solitary nodule, normal or only moderately decreased I-131 uptake, and should be suspected even in euthyroid patients.
