Ectopic thyroid is well-known pathology for several decades. Many locations have been described. Nowadays, only three cases of skull base location have been described in literature. In our case, we reported a single case of a 39-year-old male presenting with a supra-sellar and suprachiasmatic location. He presented no clinical symptoms, no endocrine alteration on biology and no skull base invasion which make this case unique compared to actual literature. Such diagnosis should always be an exclusion diagnosis as secondary neoplastic should be first ruled out.
异位甲状腺是几十年来众所周知的病理学。已经描述了许多位置。如今,文献中仅描述了 3 例颅底位置的病例。在我们的病例中,我们报告了一例 39 岁男性的病例,表现为鞍上和视交叉部位。他没有出现任何临床症状,生物学检查也没有内分泌改变,没有颅底侵犯,这使得该病例与现有文献相比具有独特性。这种诊断应该始终是排除性诊断,因为首先应该排除继发性肿瘤。
