Abstract

The analyses of the physical examinations and laboratory findings in 98 cases of subacute thyroiditis studied in our university hospital clinic during 1958 to 1972 are reported. It is characteristic to find that the incidence of this disease was significantly high during “hot” season in this district. The discrepancy of the findings of the PBI and Triosorb test and the relation between 131I uptake, Triosorb test and serum TSH level with regard to the feed-back effect of released thyroid hormone on TSH secretion are discussed.
