Lingual thyroid represents the only functioning thyroid tissue in the body in 70-80% of the cases, surgical ablation of which will produce hypothyroidism. Transposition of the lingual ectopic thyroid with its vasculary supply intact as a pedicle graft is presented. This seems to be the most locigal approach in preserving the viability and function of these ectopic tissues.
在70%-80%的病例中,舌甲状腺是体内唯一有功能的甲状腺组织,手术切除会导致甲状腺功能减退。本文介绍了将舌异位甲状腺连同其完整的血管供应作为带蒂移植物进行移位。这似乎是保留这些异位组织活力和功能的最合理方法。
