Abstract

Ectopic thyroid is a congenital defect in which the thyroid gland is located away from the usual pretracheal location. Dual ectopic thyroid, which consists of two foci of thyroid tissue, is very rare. In this case dual ectopic thyroid with subclinical hypothyroidism in a 10-year-old-girl was reported. The absence of the thyroid gland in the pretracheal location was revealed by ultrasonography (USG). Two foci of ectopic thyroid tissue located at the base of the tongue and infrahyoid region were determined by Technetium-99m pertechnetate thyroid scintigraphy. It can be concluded that if the thyroid gland is not visible by USG, ectopic thyroid tissue should be evaluated with scintigraphy

Özet

Ektopik tiroid, tiroid bezinin olağan pretrakeal lokalizasyonunun dışında yerleşim gösterdiği konjenital bir defekttir. İki tiroid dokusu odağından oluşan dual ektopik tiroid çok nadirdir. Bu olguda subklinik hipotiroidi ile birlikte dual ektopik tiroidi olan 10 yaşındaki kız çocuğu sunulmuştur. Ultrasonografide (USG) pretrakeal lokalizasyonda tiroid dokusunun olmadığı gösterildi. Teknesyum-99m perteknetat tiroid sintigrafisi ile dil kökünde ve infrahyoid alanda lokalize iki odak halinde ektopik tiroid dokusu saptandı. Sonuç olarak tiroid bezi USG ile görülmediğinde, ektopik tiroid dokusu sintigrafi ile birlikte değerlendirilmelidir.
