Thyroid disease is defined as a condition of malfunction of thyroid.
Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is over active
and produces too much thyroid hormones. Hypothyroidism is a condition
in which the thyroid gland is under active and produces very little
thyroid hormones. Thyroid cancer is defined as condition in which the
cells in the thyroid gland have become cancerous.
Acute thyroiditis (Acute infectious thyroiditis or acute suppurative
thyroiditis) is defined as a condition of as a result of relatively high
amount of iodine in the tissue causes of microbial inflammatory
thyroiditis, pyrogenic thyroiditis and bacterial thyroiditis. Acute
infectious thyroiditis is very rare,
C.2. Complications
According to the study by the Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro,
Acute suppurative thyroiditis is a rare disorder, most often caused by
Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pneumoniae, which affects
particularly children with pyriform sinus fistula. In adults, the main
complicationsare the infection in the oropharynx or respiratory tract.
The initial signs and symptoms of acute thyroiditis are similar to those
of acute pharyngitis and subacute thyroiditis. This fact often delays
diagnosis and increases the risk of complications. There is a report of a
case of a previously healthy, 28-year-old man who, after being affected
by tonsillitis, developed suppurative thyroiditis complicated by
thyrotoxicosis; a large abscess in the right lobe of the thyroid
extending to the thorax introitus, which caused a trachea deviation and
compressed large vessels; associated with internal jugular vein
thrombosis, and sepsis(21). Other indicated that although sacroileitis
is a frequent complication of brucellosis, endocarditis, thyroiditis and
pyelonephritis are among the rare complications(21a).
