The thyroid gland is naturally resistant to infectious processes, which explains the rarity of thyroid abscess. It represent about 0.1% of the surgical thyroid pathology. We report in this article a case of thyroid gland abscess in a 61 year-old man who was followed for diabetes and hypothyroidism with poor adherence, who consulted in emergency department for acute neck swelling. CT scan showed a fluid collection of the left thyroid lobe. The patient was operated, and histopathological examination concluded of laryngeal carcinoma associated to thyroid papillary carcinoma.
