Imaging Identifies Submandibular Ectopic Thyroid Tissue
Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2011The identification of submandibular ectopic normal thyroid in the lateral neck with a coexisting normally located and functional thyroid gland is rare. Ectopic normal thyroid tissue in the midline location is most commonly related to aberrant migration along the thyroglossal duct (ie, lingual thyroid).

Ectopic Intrapulmonary Thyroid Tissue Mimicking Metastatic Tissue
Thyroid, 2012Background: Ectopic intrapulmonary thyroid is extremely rare, with only about two cases reported in the literature. These cases were found either during the work-up of a solitary pulmonary nodule or at autopsy. Here, we report a case of ectopic intrapulmonary thyroid mimicking multiple pulmonary metastases from ...

Ectopic Thyroid Tissue in the Adrenal Gland
International Journal of Surgical Pathology, 2014Foci of ectopic thyroid tissue are uncommon. Most sites of thyroid ectopia are confined to the neck region. The presence of ectopic thyroid tissue outside the migration pathway of the primitive thyroid in other locations is exceptional. Given that any disease of the thyroid gland may also affect ectopic thyroid tissue, pathologists has to recognize ...

Laparoscopic resection of retroperitoneal ectopic thyroid tissue
Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery, 2017AbstractA 43‐year‐old otherwise healthy woman was found to have a retroperitoneal mass during a routine medical examination and was referred for further evaluation. Abdominal CT scan showed a well‐delineated, low‐density area that exhibited heterogeneous contrast enhancement. The area measured about 20 mm in size and was to the left of the aorta at the

Ectopic Thyroid Tissue: Immunohistochemistry and Molecular Analysis
Applied Immunohistochemistry & Molecular Morphology, 2018Ectopic thyroid tissue is rare and controversial. Some experts consider it to always be metastatic thyroid carcinoma, whereas others consider it benign as long as it is restricted to few follicles without cytoarchitectural features of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Ectopic Thyroid Tissue With Hashimoto's Thyroiditis.
WMJ : official publication of the State Medical Society of Wisconsin, 2016Ectopic thyroid gland is a rare occurrence with a prevalence of 1 per 100,000 to 300,000 people. Hashimoto's thyroiditis involving ectopic thyroid tissue is particularly unusual. We describe the presentation, workup, surgical management, and brief review of the literature.Retroactive review of an 83-year-old white female patient record.

Ectopic thyroid tissue presenting as a submandibular mass
Head & Neck, 1996To our knowledge, only three cases with ectopic submandibular thyroid have been reported. No patient with simultaneous presence of ectopic submandibular thyroid and normal thyroid gland has been reported. Literature on this topic is reviewed.A 34-year-old woman with a longstanding asymptomatic right submandibular mass was evaluated by ecography ...

Abnormalities in the embryologic development and migration of the thyroid gland can result in ectopic thyroid tissue, which may occur on the midline in any position from the base of the tongue to the mediastinum. Although ectopic thyroid tissue may be asymptomatic, local obstructive, hemorrhagic or other complications may occur.

Graves' Disease and Recurrent Ectopic Thyroid Tissue
Thyroid, 1999Ectopic thyroid tissue is the result of abnormal migration of the gland as it travels from the floor of the primitive foregut to its destined pretracheal position. The prevalence of ectopic thyroid tissue ranges between 7%-10%. Patients with ectopic thyroid tissue are usually euthyroid, but can present with signs and symptoms of upper aerodigestive ...

Ectopic submandibular thyroid tissue.
Revue de laryngologie - otologie - rhinologie, 1999We reported a case of a 66 year-old male patient with a mass located in the right submandibular region. Surgical excision of the mass was performed and histologic examination revealed that the tumor was ectopic thyroid tissue. Additionally, imaging studies confirmed that the thyroid gland was found in its normal location and the patient had normal ...
