Thyroid hemiagenesis resulting from the failure of embryologic development of one thyroidal lobe is a very rare anomaly. It is usually incidentally discovered during the investigation of accompanying thyroid disorders. Here we report three cases with right lobe agenesis in two patients and left lobe agenesis in one patient. Two of them were hyperthyroid, while the other euthyroid patient had a thyroid mass.
甲状腺半侧发育不全是指一侧甲状腺叶胚胎发育失败,这是一种非常罕见的异常情况。它通常在对伴发的甲状腺疾病进行检查时偶然发现。在此,我们报告两例右叶发育不全和一例左叶发育不全的病例。其中两例为甲状腺功能亢进,而另一例甲状腺功能正常的患者有甲状腺肿块。
