Riedel Med.|ˈriːdəl|
The name of B. M. K. L. Riedel (1846–1916), German physician, used in the possessive to designate (a) an unusually long lobe of the liver; (b) a rare condition of uncertain status in which the thyroid gland is largely replaced by dense fibrous tissue.

I. vi. 567 Riedel's lobe is an occasional linguiform process of liver substance projecting caudally from the caudal border of the right lobe. If detectable by palpation or percussion it may be mistaken for an enlarged gallbladder; of course the two may coexist. 1978Jrnl. R. Soc. Med. LXXI. 200 The homogeneous echogenic mass of the lower border of the liver is either a Riedel's lobe, if of the same echogenicity as the liver; or a tumour, if of differing echogenicity.
