Augustine T M Tang1, Mark J Johnson, Bruce Addis, David F Weeden.   

Abstract

Ectopic thyroid tissue in the chest is rare. We report a case of a euthyroid patient with benign ectopic thyroid tissue presenting as a thymic mass in association with a multinodular goiter. Both disorders were managed successfully by surgical intervention.
