Abstract EN

Aspergillus thyroiditis is a rare disorder detected in immunocompromised patients during disseminated infections.

Early management is essential to prevent high mortality.

A 61-year-old allogeneic stem cell male recipient presented with painful thyroid nodular enlargement.

He had low TSH and low free T4 levels.

The thyroid ultrasound showed a hypoechoic nodule; biopsy indicated suppurative Aspergillus thyroiditis.

He was successfully treated by amphotericin B.
