Thyroid hemiagenesis is a rare congenital anomaly in which one thyroid lobe fails to develop. Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy and ultrasonography can be used to visualize this anomaly. The authors evaluated four cases with Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy and ultrasonography and confirmed thyroid hemiagenesis. In one case, a Tc-99m MIBI scan excluded the suppresssion of the contralateral thyroid lobe. Tc-99m MIBI can be used to confirm the diagnosis of thyroid hemiagenesis.
甲状腺半侧缺如是一种罕见的先天性异常,其中一侧甲状腺叶未能发育。锝-99m高锝酸盐闪烁扫描和超声检查可用于显示这种异常。作者对4例患者进行了锝-99m高锝酸盐闪烁扫描和超声检查,确诊为甲状腺半侧缺如。在1例患者中,锝-99m甲氧基异丁基异腈扫描排除了对侧甲状腺叶的抑制。锝-99m甲氧基异丁基异腈可用于确诊甲状腺半侧缺如。
