Preoperative examination revealed a nodule in the left lobe of the thyroid gland and a nodule behind the left lobe. The patient ultimately underwent non-inflatable endoscopic surgery under the axilla to completely remove the tumor located in the suprasternal fossa. Postoperative pathological examination confirmed ectopic thyroid adenoma. The patient's postoperative thyroid function was normal.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The diagnosis of ectopic thyroid is difficult due to its highly non-specific histological characteristics and positional changes. However, clinical diagnosis and treatment should not overlook the possibility of ectopic thyroid. On the basis of completely removing the lesion, the transaxillary non-inflatable endoscopic surgery also meets the patient's minimally invasive and aesthetic needs.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The diagnosis of ectopic thyroid is difficult, and through transaxillary non-inflatable endoscopic surgery, the tumor can be completely removed and the patient's aesthetic needs can be met.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2023.109181","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,21]],"date-time":"2023-12-21T05:41:43Z","timestamp":1703137303000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A case report of ectopic thyroid adenoma resection by transaxillary non-inflatable endoscopic surgery"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"114","author":[{"given":"Ling","family":"He","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wei","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jian-Feng","family":"Sheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"issue":"4","key":"R1-91-20260325","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"261","DOI":"10.14310\/horm.2002.1317","article-title":"Ectopic thyroid: etiology, pathology and management","volume":"10","author":"Ibrahim,","year":"2011","journal-title":"Hormones (Athens)"},{"issue":"1","key":"R2-91-20260325","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"75","DOI":"10.29271\/jcpsp.2019.01.75","article-title":"Agenesis of isthmus of thyroid gland in the presence of ectopic thyroid tissue associated with papillary carcinoma","volume":"29","author":"Ugur,","year":"2019","journal-title":"J.
