Agenesis of Isthmus of thyroid gland with presence of pyramidal lobe and levator glandulae thyroideae. Journal of International Medicine and Dentistry. 2014 Dec; 1(2): 93-96.2350-045Xhttp://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/163488A wide range of morphological and developmental variations of thyroid gland like hypoplasia, ectopic thyroid tissue, hemiagenesis or agenesis of thyroid gland has been reported. Out of these agenesis of the thyroid isthmus is a very rare congenital anomaly. Thyroid isthmus agenesis does not manifest clinical symptoms, and it can be confused with other thyroid pathologies. Also the presence of levator glandulae thyroideae and its anatomical variations gain importance in the pathologies which are related to thyroid gland and their treatment modalities. We hereby, report the absence of isthmus and presence of levator glandulae thyroideae and pyramidal lobe in a middle aged male cadaver. The present case report is an attempt to highlight the implications of variation of thyroid gland from diagnostic, phylogenetic and functional perspectives.enThyroid glandLevator glandulae thyroideaePyramidal lobeThyroglossal ductCadaverHumansMaleMiddle AgedThyroid DysgenesisThyroid Gland --abnormalitiesThyroid Gland --anatomy & histologyArticle
