The thyroid gland and its hormones play important roles in organ development and in the homeostatic control of physiological mechanisms in human beings. As a result of embryogenic descent of thyroid gland, it commonly resides along the midline - from tongue to mediastinum (90%). Ectopic thyroid gland is a rare occurrence, with extra-lingual ectopic thyroid gland being even rarer. Thus, there is a concern for malignant metastasis. Madam H, a 56-year-old healthy woman presented to the Hospital Sultanah Nora Ismail, Johor, Malaysia in April 2020 with an increasing size of right axilla mass and history of weight loss. She was having right axilla mass for the previous 7 years but only noticed the increase in size about 1 year ago. She has no other constitutional symptoms. A tru-cut biopsy performed demonstrated a benign ectopic thyroid tissue. Thyroid function test showed primary hypothyroidism. Serum Chromogranin A and other thyroid antibodies were within the normal value. Further radiological imaging showed the normal thyroid gland at neck, with no signs of distant malignancy. There was no other axillary, mediastinal or hilar lymph node enlargement. She was started on regular T. L Thyroxine 100mcg daily and given regular follow-up in endocrine clinic. Benign ectopic thyroid gland is an unusual finding. As such, follow up is needed with possibility of carcinomatous transformation such as papillary carcinoma should be considered.
