An anterior mediastinal mass initially suspected to be a thymic neoplasm. Further investigation via biopsy and iodine scanning revealed it to be ectopic thyroid tissue.

While anterior mediastinal masses often raise suspicion for the "Four Ts," ectopic thyroid should be considered, and non-contrast CT can be particularly helpful for identifying its high density.
