    Lessons to be learned: a case study approach. Lateral aberrant thyroid tissue: is it always malignant?

    Escofet X, Khan AZ, Mazarani W, Woods WG.

    Department of Surgery, Worthing Hospital, Worthing, UK.

    Traditionally 'lateral aberrant thyroid' tissue present in cervical lymph nodes in the face of a clinically normal thyroid gland is held to be a metastasis from an occult primary thyroid carcinoma. A patient in whom follicular thyroid tissue was found in a lymph node lateral to the carotid sheath in the presence of a thyroid gland which was histologically free of cancer is herewith presented.
