C A Koch1, C Picken, S C Clement, N Azumi, N J Sarlis.   

Abstract

Ectopic thyroid is rare and occasionally presents suddenly in childhood. Adult patients with thyroid ectopy who develop local symptoms commonly have an enlarged ectopic gland and hypothyroidism. We describe the first case of an adult patient who sudden presented with sudden dysphagia and dyspnea caused by a large lingual thyroid in clinical and biochemical euthyroidism. Treatment consisted of surgical removal of the ectopic gland and thyroid hormone replacement therapy.
