SUBACUTE THYROIDITIS CAN BE CONSIDERED A COMPLICATION OF SARS-COV2 INFECTION-CASE PRESENTATION
Keywords:

Abstract
The Sars Cov-2 virus produced an impact on the health system never seen before in modern times. Due to the large number of patients infected, clinical practitioners but also pathologists started to observe that other organs besides the lungs were damaged by the virus. The mechanisms through which this happens are not entirely clear mainly due to the fact that this is a novel disease and we are still learning new information on a daily basis. This multi-visceral approach of the virus to the human body wrecks havoc and is hard to contain. Our study and case presentation focused on the impact the Sars Cov-2 virus has on the thyroid gland, clinical signs, and treatment options.
