The Use of a Surgical Spoon in the Removal of Substernal Goiter.
Goiter with substernal extension is common, with a reported incidence of up to 20% in patients undergoing thyroidectomy. It has been shown that the vast majority of substernal goiters can be removed through a cervical incision.

Abstract Objective Postthyroidectomy voice and swallowing symptoms (PVSS) may occur even in absence of laryngeal nerve injuries, which remains poorly understood. The objective of this review was to investigate the occurrence of PVSS and the potential etiological role of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). Design Scoping review.

Background. Gemstone spectral contrast‐enhanced CT with virtual noncontrast (VNC) images and iodine maps can potentially reduce the number of required CT scans for thyroid lesions. However, data regarding the clinical utility of VNC images and iodine maps in characterizing thyroid lesions and distinguishing thyroid papillary carcinoma from nodular ...

Surgical Approach of Substernal Goiter
Substernal goiters are quite common; their diagnosis is mainly based on the CT scan which must be performed systematically in case of suspicion of intrathoracic extension of the goiter.

Background. It has been widely assumed that TOETVA has demonstrated a new technique and a promising approach as it is both minimally invasive and optimally cosmetic. The objective of this study was to assess the surgical outcome, aesthetic satisfaction, and postoperative quality of life of TOETVA in comparison with open thyroid surgery.

Left Nonrecurrent Laryngeal Nerve: A Very Unusual Finding during Thyroid Surgery
Background. Identifying the inferior laryngeal nerve is one of the main concerns in thyroid surgery. The typical recurrent position occurs due the relative position between the vagus nerve and the larynx during the last 3 branchial arches development. In rare cases, this nerve does not loop under the right subclavian artery or the aortic arch.

Histological examination of the mediastinal mass showing thyroid follicles. Abstract Primary mediastinal goiter is extremely uncommon. The majority of primary mediastinal goiters were reported as incidental findings on chest imaging of asymptomatic patients. Symptoms related to compression of adjacent structures or hyperthyroidism were rarely described.

Surgery is one of the most appropriate treatment options for many patients with substernal goiter (SG). However, SG surgery has some technical difficulties and a higher risk of complications compared to normal cervical thyroid surgery.

Surgical Treatment of Substernal Goiter Part 2: Cervical and Extracervical Approaches, Complications
