Thyroid tubercle of Zuckerkandl: anatomical and surgical experience from 79 thyroidectomies
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 06/23/09
Page C et al. - The tubercle of Zuckerkandl is a poorly known and variable anatomical feature of the thyroid gland which may not, in fact, be so rare. It arises for embryological reasons, and it can be a reliable anatomical landmark for identifying the recurrent laryngeal nerve during thyroid surgery. It should be included in the Nomina Anatomica as the ‘processus posterior glandulae thyroideae’ described by Zuckerkandl.
