A case of thyroid cancer dystopian to the root of the tongue

https://doi.org/10.14341/probl11939

Abstract

The extreme variability of the shape and position of the thyroid gland is due to deviations in its embryonic development. Special studies have shown that in about half of cases, the remains of thyroid tissue are found in the region of the hyoid bone, the root of the tongue.
