This study was undertaken in order to find out the frequency of thyroglossal duct remnants and to specify the relationship between this tract the hyoïd bone. The remnants having undergone cystic pathology refer to tracks edged with an epithelial lining which can be various, associated or isolated, types. Thyroïd follicles may be annexed to this track, in or out of its cystic part. The systematic study of 23 hyoïdal and sub hyoïdal regions of adults exempt of any pathologic remnants allows one to find tracks in 13 cases, that is in every other case. This frequency is higher than the one normally described. These remnants always refer to some thyroïd follicle islands and rarely to an epithelial track. Furthermore, we can sometimes observe the frankly intra hyoïdal situation of the thyroid tissue. This last location is discussed according to embryologic data.
本研究旨在查明甲状舌管残余的发生率，并明确该管道与舌骨之间的关系。发生囊性病变的残余物是指由上皮衬里构成边缘的管道，其类型多样，可为相关或孤立型。甲状腺滤泡可附着于该管道，位于其囊性部分内或外。对23例无任何病理性残余物的成人舌骨及舌骨下区域进行系统研究，发现13例存在管道，即每两例中就有一例。该发生率高于通常描述的情况。这些残余物总是指一些甲状腺滤泡岛，很少指上皮管道。此外，我们有时可观察到甲状腺组织明显位于舌骨内的情况。根据胚胎学数据对这一最后的位置进行了讨论。
