The first six cases of ETTAG were reported in the Japanese population (23)(24)(25)(26)(27); however, a seventh case in an African American woman has been more recently published (28), and our two cases have been found in women from Colombia and Spain, respectively.…”

“…Infradiaphragmatic ectopic thyroid has been reported in the submucosa of the duodenum (13), small intestinal mesentery (14), porta hepatis (12), gallbladder (15,16), pancreas (17), periesplenic area (18), ovary (19,20), fallopian tube (20), inguinal region (21), and vagina (22). To our knowledge, only seven cases of ETTAG have been reported in the literature (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28) (Table 1). Women are much more frequently affected than men (8:1), and most cases clinically presented in the fifth decade (mean age 54, range 38-67) as a cystic adrenal mass incidentally discovered on abdominal US or in CT images.…”
