摘要：
Isolated thyroid gland tuberculosis is a rare disease, while even rarer is its presentation as an acute abscess. Here we present the case of a 65-year-old female who presented with a neck swelling which progressed to an abscess with multiple discharging sinuses which was proven to be tubercular abscess on histopathology.
