Overview

The exact pathogenesis of de Quervain's thyroiditis is unclear. It is proposed that cytotoxic T cell recognition of complex viral and cell antigens presentation leads to the thyroid follicular cell damage which is responsible for the pathogenesis of de Quervain's thyroiditis. De Quervain's thyroiditis is usually preceded by a viral prodrome and also have a genetic predisposition. HLA B35 and HLA B15/62 are associated with de Quervain's thyroiditis.

Pathophysiology

Pathogenesis

The exact pathogenesis of de Quervain's thyroiditis is unclear, but autoimmunity mechanism is proposed.

Genetics

Pathology

The primary pathology of de Quervain's thyroiditis is:

  • Destruction of the follicular epithelium
  • Loss of the follicular integrity[1]
