Resumen

La tiroiditis de Riedel es una enfermedad inflamatoria crónica de la glándula tiroides caracterizada por un proceso de fibrosis invasiva que destruye parcialmente la glándula, extendiéndose a las estructuras cervicales adyacentes. Su origen es desconocido, aunque hay varias teorías al respecto. Las manifestaciones clínicas no son específicas y se confunde frecuentemente con neoplasia o infección, ya que aparece una masa tiroidea dura e indolora que produce síntomas compresivos. En este trabajo, presentamos un caso con evolución letal.

Abstract

The Riedel´s thyroiditis is a chronic inflamatory disease of the thyroid gland characterized by a process of fibrosis that destroys the gland partially, extending to the adjacent cervical structures. Its origin is unknown, although there are several theories in this respect. The clinical manifestations are not specific and it confuses frequently with neoplasia or infection, like a hard and painless thyroid mass that causes compressive symptoms. In this work, we report a case with lethal outcome.
