title: [Adenocarcinoma of the thyroglossal duct].
abstract: Carcinoma of the thyroglossal duct is a rare entity. In most cases, papillary carcinomas are reported. Follicular or squamous cell carcinomas are seldom. Insofar no capsular refraction exists, the best treatment seems to be the Sistrunk operation with postoperative thyroid suppression medication.
