Abstract
Ektopik tiroid dokusu, tiroid dokusunun embriyolojik gelişimi sırasında anormal göçü sonucu oluşur ve genellikle lingual yerleşimlidir. Ektopik lingual tiroid bezi asemptomatik olabildiği gibi, disfaji, dispne, kanama, disfoni ve boğazda yabancı cisim hissi gibi semptomlar ile de karşımıza çıkabilir. Biz biri asemptomatik, diğeri ise basıya bağlı semptomları olan subklinik hipotiroidizm ile geç tanı alan iki ektopik lingual tiroid bezi olan olguları sunmayı amaçladık. Ektopik lingual tiroidli hastaların tedavisi; hastaya, tiroid bezinin boyutlarına, laboratuvar ve görüntüleme yöntemlerinin sonuçlarına göre planlanmaktadır.

Abstract
Ectopic thyroid tissue is the result of abnormal embryologic development/migration of the thyroid gland and is most commonly located in a single location, this being the lingual area. Its occurrence in children is rare. Diagnosis is mainly based on clinical examination and imaging. Clinical symptoms usually seen in patients may include dysphagia, dysphonia, sore throat, occasional bleeding and upper airway obstruction though most patients remain asymptomatic. Here, we presented two ectopic lingual thyroid cases with one being symptomatic and the other one asymptomatic and both suffering from subclinical hypothyroidism.Treatment modalities employed in lingual thyroid depends on factors such as the general condition of patient, thyroid gland size, and laboratory and imaging results
