Invasive fibrous thyroiditis (Riedel's struma): a manifestation of multifocal fibrosclerosis? A case report with review of the literature
Abstract
A patient is described with Riedel's thyroiditis and invasive fibrous growth in parathyroid, lacrimal glands, and retroperitoneally. It is proposed that Riedel's thyroiditis is not a disease in its own right but a manifestation of a generalized disease of fibrous tissues.
