Kanhaiyalal Agrawal1, P Sai Sradha Patro1, Pradeep Pradhan2.   

Abstract

Ectopic thyroid tissue is a rare entity of embryological aberration along the tract of descend of thyroid gland. Accurate localization and characterization are required for deciding management based on clinical features and symptoms. Ectopic thyroid in the absence of normal thyroid gland is uncommon. However, triple ectopic thyroid with absence of normal thyroid gland is very rare, with only a few cases reported previously. We present a case of triple ectopic thyroid, which appeared as single on planar Tc-sodium pertechnetate image, but was evident on SPECT/CT images.
