Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Posterior mediastinum is a very rare site of ectopic thyroid and such cases are usually identified incidentally by radiography.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 74 year-old Caucasian male was operated for a mass located in the right posterior mediastinum. Diagnosis of thyroid tissue was confirmed intra-operatively by frozen section and the mass was resected totally. He is well without any problems for 1 year after operation.
CONCLUSION: Surgical resection may deliver a cure for ectopic posterior mediastinal thyroid and offers good prospects for prognosis.
