OBJECTIVE: To report the clinical characteristics and outcomes of subacute thyroiditis (SAT) patients at the Theptarin
Hospital Thyroid Clinic.
Methodology. A retrospective review of medical records of SAT patients in the Theptarin Hospital from January 2007 to
December 2013 was conducted. Clinical characteristics, laboratory findings, modes of treatment and complications
were recorded.
RESULTS: From January 2007 to December 2013, SAT was diagnosed in 149 patients, with the occurrence of SAT
peaking in October and November. Of 115 patients who had complete follow-up data, mean age was 43.8±10.8 years,
88.7% were women, and SAT was preceded by an upper respiratory tract infection in 68.7%. Oral prednisolone was
given in 83 cases (72.2%) at a median starting dose of 30 mg/day and was continued for a median duration of 49 days.
Recurrence of SAT during the tapering period of oral prednisolone was observed in 12% of patients, resulting in
reinitiation of steroid in 13% of patients for late recurrence. Transient and permanent hypothyroidism developed in 6.1%
and 8.7% of patients respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: SAT in Thai patients showed seasonal clustering during October and November. Recurrences of SAT
were common in the course of steroid treatment. SAT patients require careful follow-up during steroid treatment and
long-term surveillance for thyroid dysfunction.

Acute suppurative thyroiditis is a rare and potentially fatal condition. We present a case of an 18-year-old Malay female who presented with one-week history of painful right sided neck swelling, fever and odynophagia. Neck CT confirms ruptured multiloculated abscess with posterosuperior extension into prevertebral space. Pus and tissue cultured Streptococcus anginosus and Eikenella corrodens with positive TB PCR. She responded well to ampicillin/sulbactam and anti-tuberculosis treatment with no evidence of residual collection from ultrasound.
