Fifty-eight human fetal thyroid glands obtained at autopsy were systematically studied for the presence of intrathyroidal parathyroid tissue. The latter was found in 13 thyroid lobes from 12 fetuses. It was located in a subcapsular position in 9 of 58 cases and lying deep in thyroid tissue in 4 of 58. Our findings suggest that intrathyroidal parathyroid tissue is not such a rare finding and should always be considered especially for the clinical and surgical management of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism due to parathyroid hyperplasia.
对58例尸检获得的人胎儿甲状腺进行系统研究,以确定甲状腺内甲状旁腺组织的存在情况。在12例胎儿的13个甲状腺叶中发现了后者。58例中有9例位于包膜下位置,58例中有4例位于甲状腺组织深部。我们的研究结果表明,甲状腺内甲状旁腺组织并非罕见发现,尤其在原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症患者因甲状旁腺增生而进行临床和外科治疗时,应始终予以考虑。
