We report a 16-year-old boy with an anterior midline neck mass clinically diagnosed as a thyroglossal duct cyst. An ultrasound scan performed prior to surgery suggested a normally located thyroid gland. Following surgical excision of the presumed thyroglossal duct cyst the patient became hypothyroid. A radioisotope scan confirmed no active thyroid tissue. A pitfall in the ultrasonographic identification of the thyroid gland is discussed.
我们报告一名16岁男孩,其颈部前正中有一肿块,临床诊断为甲状舌管囊肿。手术前进行的超声扫描显示甲状腺位置正常。在对推测的甲状舌管囊肿进行手术切除后,患者出现甲状腺功能减退。放射性同位素扫描证实无活性甲状腺组织。文中讨论了超声识别甲状腺时的一个陷阱。
