甲状腺炎主要分为三大类:急性、亚急性和慢性甲状腺炎。一、急性甲状腺炎较少见。可由细菌、真菌等来自全身血行播散或邻近细菌感染蔓延扩散到甲状腺所致。往往有脓肿形成,伴高热、出汗、心动过速,甲状腺部位剧痛、肿大、波动感、皮肤发红;白细胞升高,甲状腺机能一般正常。治疗可用抗菌药物、穿刺或手术切开引流。经过恰当的治疗,病人可痊愈并保持正常甲状腺功能。二、亚急性甲状腺炎最早的亚急性甲状腺炎又叫急性单纯性甲状腺炎、非感染性甲状腺炎、De Quervain甲状腺炎、亚急性非化脓性甲状腺炎、巨滤泡性甲状腺炎、巨细胞甲状腺炎、肉穿肿性甲状腺肿、肉芽肿性甲状腺炎等。一般认为与病毒感染有关。不少患者发病前有上呼吸道感染,可继发于腮腺炎、流行性感冒、传染性单核细胞增多症等病毒感染。血清病毒抗体增加。自家免疫可能有一定关系。甲状腺的正常滤泡结构破 Thyroiditis is divided into three main categories: acute, subacute and chronic thyroiditis. Acute thyroiditis is rare. By bacteria, fungi and other blood from the body spread or the spread of adjacent bacterial spread spread to the thyroid. Often have abscess formation, with fever, sweating, tachycardia, severe pain in the thyroid gland, swelling, flu, redness of the skin; leukocytosis, thyroid function is generally normal. Treatment of available antibiotics, puncture or surgical incision and drainage. After proper treatment, the patient can heal and maintain normal thyroid function. Second, subacute thyroiditis The earliest subacute thyroiditis, also known as acute simple thyroiditis, non-infectious thyroiditis, De Quervain thyroiditis, subacute non-suppurative thyroiditis, giant follicular thyroiditis, giant cell thyroiditis , Meat goiter goiter, granulomatous thyroiditis and so on. Generally believed that the virus infection. Many patients before the onset of upper respiratory tract infection, secondary to mumps, influenza, infectious mononucleosis and other viral infections. Serum virus antibodies increase. There may be some relationship between self-immunity. Thyroid normal follicular structure broken
