Two elderly female with acute suppurative thyroiditis presented with 2 different end of clinical spectrum and two different surgical approach. Both of them had underlying long-standing asymptomatic euthyroid multinodular goitre. Both of them also had diabetes mellitus. The first case had a sterile thyroid abscess while the second case had Pseudomonas as the culprit. Discussion pointed on the need of aggressiveness in the surgical approach with the favourable outcome. It is also important point in management to minimize the risk and complication without compromising the initial diagnosis of infection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
