Özet

© 2016 Taylor & Francis.A peritoneal dialysis patient who experienced a repeating attack after a vaccination for influenza while she was being followed and treated succesfully for subacute thyroiditis (SAT) is presented. This case shows SAT as a rare condition following vaccination. Thus, SAT should be considered as a possible outcome following influenza vaccination and flu-like syndrome.
