title: [Late recurrence of subacute De Quervain-Crile thyroiditis].
abstract: Subacute thyroiditis usually recovers completely, and recurrences are unfrequent. We report hereafter the case of a 70-year-old man with a typical diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis. He reported a similar episode 20 years earlier, followed by a mild but persistant hypothyroidism. This case reminds that recurrence of subacute thyroiditis can occur even after many years.
