Tubercular thyroid abscess.

Awanish Kumar1, Harvinder Singh Pahwa, Rohit Srivastava, Khursheed Alam Khan.   

Abstract

We encountered a patient who presented with neck swelling, difficulty in swallowing, voice change along with systemic features such as evening rise of temperature, chronic cough and weight loss. Ultrasonography of the thyroid gland revealed two cystic swellings. An ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration cytology was suggestive of tubercular abscess. The patient responded well to antigravity aspiration of the swellings and antitubercular treatment.
