de Quervain's thyroiditis -->
subacute granulomatous thyroiditis
Thyroiditis with round cell (usually lymphocytes) infiltration, destruction of thyroid cells, epithelial giant cell proliferation, and evidence of regeneration; thought by some to be a reflection of a systemic infection and not an example of true chronic thyroiditis.

Synonym: de Quervain's thyroiditis, giant cell thyroiditis.
