From the Department of Surgery, College of Medicine. Riyadh Medical Complex, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.Ectopic thyroid gland is a rare embryological fault of thyroid development. Dual ectopic thyroid is even more rare and only cases have been reported in the literature. The author presents a case of dual ectopic thyroid in a 16-year-old boy with anterior neck mass, which is gradually growing in size particularly in the last 2 years. The initial diagnosis was thyroglossal di cyst. Thyroid function test revealed elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone. Ultrasound of the neck did not show thyroid gland its normal pretracheal position. Thyroid scan (Technetium 99) revealed the diagnosis of dual thyroid ectopia (lingual a subhyoid)
