Overview

Riedel's thyroiditis was first described by Semple, in 1864 and Bolby in 1888. Riedel's thyroiditis was reported to the International Congress of Surgery by Bernhard Riedel in 1894 and 1896. It was initially considered to be the fibrous variant of Hashimoto's thyroiditis but was later recognized as a separate disease.
