ABSTRACT
Thyroid abscess is a rare clinical disorder. The caused organism was
found to be Staphylococcus aureus. A history of preceding upper respiratory
tract infection and recurrent left sided neck infection should
alert the physician to its presence. Early biopsy and cultures are needed.
Thyroid abscess is successfully treated with immediate surgical
intervention and appropriate antimicrobial agents.
