Abstract

Graves’ disease (GD) due to hyperfunction of thyroglossal duct remnants is rare, but recurrence after total thyroidectomy is even rarer. We present a rare case of a patient with recurrence of GD in a thyroglossal duct, after total thyroidectomy, who has been treated by Sistrunk procedure. Patients with a history of GD and difficult thyroid function control after total thyroidectomy should be studied to rule out persistent and functional thyroid tissue. In these cases, surgical treatment is an effective option.
