CT scan with contrast shows a non-homogeneous contrast-enhancing area (1.7cm diameter) at the root of the tongue with calcifications in the periphery. Around this structure, a few nodular structures (1cm diameter) are located, with contrast-enhancing features similar to the thyroid gland. Also, the thyroid gland cannot be visualized in its typical position in the neck. This tissue mass compresses the epiglottis and narrows the pharynx.
