The thyroid gland is called the fi violin in the orchestra of endocrine glands due to its high hierarchical position. It regulates primary metabolism and energy and significantly influences other endocrine organs. Therefore, our study aimed to establish the fetal anatomical variability of the thyroid veins and unpaired thyroid plexus. Material and methods. Using the methods of macromicroscopic preparation under a falling drop of water and injection of venous vessels, the topographic and anatomic
