ROJO-ABECIA, Mikel et al. Primary thyroid tuberculosis: a case report. Cir. cir. [online]. 2021, vol.89, suppl.2, pp.1-3. Epub 14-Fev-2022. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.21000027.
Involvement of the thyroid gland by tuberculosis is very rare and is usually secondary to disseminated infection. Very few cases of primary thyroid tuberculosis have been described even in countries with a high incidence of this disease. We present the case of a Spanish patient operated for a suspicious thyroid nodule that was finally diagnosed as primary thyroid tuberculosis.
