The authors emphasize that in case a tissue formation in detected on the root aberrant thyroid gland on the lingual root, without experiencing any marked subjective difficulties. In one of the girls it was the only thyroid tissue in the organism. The aberrant thyroid glands in both girls diminished markedly after endocrinological treatment with Thyreoidin. The authors emphasize that in case a tissue formation is detected on the root of the tongue, it is always essential to confirm or rule out an aberrant thyroid by endocrinological and gammagraphic examination. It would be a serious mistake to remove the formation without making these examinations, in particular if it were the only thyroid tissue in the organism as the child would develop hypothyroidism.
