Function Testing

A 44-year-old man presented with an enlarged painful lower anterior neck lump with elevated serum concentrations of free thyroxine (T4) and tri-iodothyronine (T3), alongside the presence of antithyroid peroxidase antibodies. Prior to presentation, the patient was demonstrating recovery from a SARS-CoV-2 infection that required sedation, intubation, and invasive ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU) for 11 days. Ultrasound examination of the thyroid demonstrated features of De Quervain’s (subacute) thyroiditis. This corresponded to the clinical picture, and continuous thyroid function tests were arranged. Emerging evidence throughout the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic describes the long-term sequelae of the infection, including developing atypical effects on the thyroid gland. This case report emphasises the association of painful subacute thyroiditis with post-viral infection and its manifestation during recovery from severe SARS-CoV-2, suggesting that follow-up thyroid function testing should be considered in patients discharged from the ICU who develop neck discomfort.

Abstract Subacute thyroiditis(SAT) is associated with viral(destructive) or post-viral(inflammatory) origin.[1]The most common clinical characteristics of SAT are female sex preponderance, anterior neck pain and fever.[2,3] Heart rhythm disorders and silent cervical forms have been described in SAT associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection,which occurs 16 to 36 days after resolution of COVID-19.[1,3] Symptomatic improvement occurs in a few days after initiation of therapy with sterods or NSAID.[3] Pyrexia of Unknown Origin (PUO) is a very rare presentation of SAT.[2] Hereby, a case of SAT, presenting with painful neck swelling and persistent fever (5weeks duration), two weeks after resolution of COVID-19, is being discussed. The index patient was a 50-year old obese,normotensive, diabetic (10 years duration, HbA1c-6.6% on SU, metformin, sitagliptin and dapagliflozin) male. TSH was suppressed (0.02 mIU/L), FT4 (3.06 ng/dl, upper limit of normal-1.48ng/dl) and FT3 (3.9 pg/ml, upper limit of normal-3.71 pg/ml) were elevated. Total T4 and T3 were normal. HS-CRP was markedly elevated. IL-6 and TBG were not estimated. Cervical USG revealed diffuse hypoechogenecity of thyroid gland and thyromegaly. There was reduced uptake in thyroid scan (technetium). The patient became afebrile after 4 days of initiation of 30 mg prednisolone (tapered by 10 mg every 5 days). The initial tachycardia reverted to sinus rhythm with marked reduction of neck tenderness. This case highlights certain considerations for SAT associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Firstly, it can present with PUO (first case report). Secondly, it may be associated with normal total T4 and T3 which can happen due to reduced TBG consequent upon increased IL-6.[4] References: 1.

De Quervain Thyroiditis

Viral infections have often been associated with subacute (De Quervain) thyroiditis. Rare cases of subacute thyroiditis have been reported after vaccines. Various vaccines have been developed with different techniques against SARS-CoV-2. This case report presents a rare case of subacute thyroiditis after the inactive SARS-CoV-2 virus vaccine, CoronaVac.
