We report a rare case of papillary thyroid carcinoma incidentally found within a branchial cleft cyst. Only four other cases have been described in the literature. A total thyroidectomy and selective neck dissection was performed, and no evidence of occult primary disease was found after review of fine sections. Branchial cleft cysts are the most common lateral neck masses. Ectopic thyroid tiss...
Introduction: Lingual thyroid is the presence of thyroid tissue in the midline anywhere between the circumvallate papillae of tongue and the epiglottis. It occurs due to embryonic failure of normal thyroid tissue to descend from base of tongue to neck. Case report: A 16 year old female presented with dysphagia and a mass was seen at base of tongue. Ultrasound showed absence of normal thyroid gl...

Chemokines and their corresponding receptors are crucial for the recruitment of lymphocytes into the lymphoid organs and for its organization acting in a multistep process. Tissues affected by autoimmune disease often contain ectopic lymphoid follicles which, in the case of autoimmune thyroid disorders, are highly active and specific for thyroid Ags although its pathogenic role remains unclear....
OBJECTIVE To determine the utility of ultrasonography as a sole diagnostic study in the preoperative preparation of patients with presumed thyroglossal duct cysts. DESIGN Retrospective chart review. SETTINGS Children's Memorial Hospital, Chicago, Ill. PATIENTS Forty-five pediatric patients with midline masses. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Accuracy in the determination of a normally positioned t...
Ectopic thyroid tissue (ETT) was usually discovered in head and neck region, adrenal ETT was rare reported in literature. Here is a report of adrenal gland cyst with ETT in a 49-year old woman who was admitted to our hospital for health care. CT scan demonstrated a mass in left adrenal gland, and surgical resection was prepared. The mass was cystic, composed of normal adrenal and ectopic thyroi...
Ectopic thyroid tissue (ETT) is a rare entity and a challenging differential diagnosis. This is a report of a case of a mediastinal mass that was found to be an ectopic mediastinal thyroid tissue, in a 77-year-old woman who was admitted to our hospital for breast cancer management. The mediastinal mass was identified in the postsurgical computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest and was suspect...
BACKGROUND Posterior mediastinum is a very rare site of ectopic thyroid and such cases are usually identified incidentally by radiography. CASE PRESENTATION A 74 year-old Caucasian male was operated for a mass located in the right posterior mediastinum. Diagnosis of thyroid tissue was confirmed intra-operatively by frozen section and the mass was resected totally. He is well without any probl...
INTRODUCTION True benign thyroid masses very rarely present as a solitary lateral neck mass. Different aetiological mechanisms have been proposed for such masses. CASE REPORT We report a case of thyroid follicular adenoma that presented as a lateral neck mass. DISCUSSION Ectopic thyroid tissue and metastases from primary thyroid carcinoma should always be considered in the differential diag...
