Abstract

Abstract: Intratracheal ectopic thyroid tissue is an extremely rare condition with limited cases reported in the literature. It can be asymptomatic or present with symptoms such as dysphagia, bleeding, dysphonia, dyspnea, and a sensation of a foreign body in the throat, depending on its localization. Due to its various clinical presentations, it poses a diagnostic dilemma. Herein, we aimed to present the contribution of thyroid scintigraphy and SPECT/CT to the diagnosis and management of a case with follicular carcinoma in the orthotopic thyroid gland as well as an ectopic intratracheal thyroid causing cough and airway obstruction mimicking a subglottic mass.

SPECT/CT显示甲状腺滤泡癌患者气管内异位甲状腺组织模仿声门下肿块

摘要：气管内异位甲状腺组织是一种极为罕见的病症，文献中报道的病例有限。它可以没有症状，也可以出现吞咽困难、出血、发音障碍、呼吸困难和咽喉异物感等症状，这取决于它的位置。由于其临床表现多种多样，因此给诊断带来了难题。在此，我们旨在介绍甲状腺闪烁扫描和SPECT/CT对一例正位甲状腺滤泡癌病例的诊断和治疗所做的贡献，以及异位气管内甲状腺导致咳嗽和气道阻塞，模仿声门下肿块的病例。
