Clinical photograph showed a smooth, reddish, round mass at the tongue base (Figure 1). Contrast-enhanced CT in sagittal and axial views demonstrated an enhancing lesion at the posterior tongue with the absence of orthotopic thyroid tissue in the pretracheal area (Figure 2). Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy showed focal tracer uptake in the lingual region (Figure 3), confirming the diagnosis of ectopic thyroid tissue.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.15605\/jafes.041.01.6209","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,1]],"date-time":"2026-05-01T03:21:29Z","timestamp":1777605689000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Lingual Thyroid"],"prefix":"10.15605","author":[{"family":"Rizqi Rifani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dicky Levenus","family":"Tahapary","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"6244","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"84798","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Anand SS, Sood V, Kumar PG, Suryanarayna KM, Kotwal N.
