Tuberculosis of the thyroid gland is very rare, with an acute abscess formation being the least common form of presentation. We report the sono‐graphic features of two cases of tuberculous thyroid abscess that were confirmed via ultrasound‐guided fine needle aspiration biopsy. Β© 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
