==Overview==
'''For patient information click [[{{Hashimoto's thyroiditis}} (patient information)|here]]'''
'''De Quervain's thyroiditis''' usually occurs in women between 30 and 50 years of age. It is a member of the group of thyroiditis conditions known as resolving thyroiditis.


==Historical Perspective==
It is named for [[Fritz de Quervain]].<ref>{{WhoNamedIt|synd|1139}}</ref> It should not be confused with [[DeQuervain's syndrome]].


==Classification==
{{SK}} Chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis; autoimmune thyroiditis; struma lymphomatosa; lymphadenoid goiter; chronic autoimmune thyroiditis

===History and Symptoms===
 
===Physical Examination===
Patients will experience a hyperthyroid period as the cellular lining of colloid spaces fails, allowing abundant colloid into the circulation, with neck pain and fever. Patients typically then become hypothyroid as the pituitary reduces [[TSH]] production and the inappropriately released colloid is depleted before resolving to euthyroid. The symptoms are those of [[hyperthyroidism]] and [[hypothyroidism]]. In addition, patients may suffer from painful [[dysphagia]]. There are multi-nucleated giant cells on histology.
