Overview

Riedel thyroiditis (RT) is a rare immune-mediated inflammatory disease that destroys the thyroid parenchyma, replacing it with storiform fibrosis extending to the extrathyroidal tissue. Secondary fibrotic lesions can be associated as parts of the systemic IgG4-related disease. We present the case of a 52-year-old female patient who presented initially with subacute thyroiditis when corticosteroid treatment was initiated. After a year, compressive respiratory symptoms and dysphagia appear, and fine-needle aspiration cytology is performed to rule out malignancy, but without results. Thyroidectomy is performed, and histopathology shows scleroatrophic thyroiditis, with chronic inflammatory infiltrate containing eosinophils extending in the neighboring tissue, rare atrophic follicles, and obliterative vasculitis. Immunohistochemistry proves abundant plasma cells with IgG4 secretion; the macrophage is mainly the M2 subtype. RT is diagnosed, and a CT (computed tomography) scan is performed to detect peritracheal fibrosis and subtle pulmonary modifications. A literature review was performed that situates our findings in the context of the current literature. The last part discusses the immuno-inflammatory mechanisms behind IgG4-related diseases.
