ABSTRACT

Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome is a rare inherited immunodeficiency, accompanied by thrombocytopenia. In addition, thyroid abscess occurs rarely, given the levels of iodine, lymphatic irrigation and the encapsulation of the organ. The objective of this work is to present the case of a patient with an abscess of the thyroid gland, who was also a carrier of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome. A 21 years old male was treated at the León Cuervo Rubio Hospital, in Pinar del Río. A week earlier, he had suffered a anthrax on his back, followed by swelling in his neck and signs of compression, but with no signs of sepsis. During the surgical intervention, an abscess of the thyroid gland was found. Timely treatment of thyroid abscess avoids fatal consequences in immunodeficient patients, such as the patient presented.
