Arrested Descent of the Thyroid: A New Manifestation of Abnormal Thyroid Embryology

Barton F. Branstetter, Annella Fernandez

Abstract

In this article, we review the normal embryology of the thyroid gland, categorize the ways in which this embryology can fail, and describe how those failures manifest clinically and radiologically. Finally, we describe a new manifestation of abnormal thyroid embryology. Laryngoscope, 134:995-997, 2024.
