The English literature is scarce on lesions of thyroglossal duct remnants in the tropics. This prompted the study of cases seen in our hospital over a 20 year period (1961 to 1980). Our findings showed that these lesions are not as rare in the tropics, as current literature would seem to suggest. The presentations of cases and results of surgery are similar to reports dealing with Caucasian populations.
英文文献中关于热带地区甲状舌管残余病变的内容较少。这促使我们对我院在20年期间（1961年至1980年）所见病例进行研究。我们的研究结果表明，这些病变在热带地区并不像当前文献所显示的那样罕见。病例的临床表现和手术结果与针对白种人群的报告相似。
