Ectopic Parathyroid in an Ectopic Cervical Thymus in a Patient with Parathyroid Adenoma

Ectopic Parathyroid in an Ectopic Cervical Thymus in a Patient with Parathyroid Adenoma

Cervical embryology is complex. Developmental abnormalities, especially aberrant migration might occur along the entire path of any native tissue descent, which can result in ectopic displacement as ectopic thymus or parathyroid. Ectopic cervical thymus as well as ectopic parathyroid tissue is rare...
