Title: Ectopic intratracheal thyroid. Author: Yang Y, Li Q, Qu J, Xiang Y, Pan Y, Liao Z, Zhang X. Journal: South Med J; 2010 May; 103(5):467-70. PubMed ID: 20375955. Abstract: Ectopic intratracheal thyroid (EITT) is a rare abnormality, with few cases reported in the literature. We describe a case of a 36-year-old woman with dyspnea due to EITT. We also discuss the epidemiology, etiologies, presentation, diagnosis, and management of EITT. Because EITT is a rare cause of airway obstruction, we hope to remind the clinician of it by presenting this case.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
