Résumé : The ultrastructural aspect of the thyroid in acquired hypothyroidism in adult humans is quite similar to that described in chronic autoimmune thyroiditis. Only a few follicles persist: most of their cells show an oncocytic transformation. Rare colloid cells are present. A new thyroid cell type characterized by numerous cytoplasmic fibrils is described and its ultimobranchial origin is discussed.
