Harmonic focus in thyroidectomy for substernal goiter
OBJECTIVES: No previous prospective study has evaluated harmonic scalpel in thyroidectomy for substernal goiter. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of harmonic scalpel (FOCUS shear, Ethicon Endo-Surgery) in thyroidectomy for substernal ...

Endoscopic Ultrasound–Guided Diagnosis of Mediastinal Ectopic Thyroid in a High‐Risk Elderly Male
Ectopic thyroid tissue (ETT) is a rare condition that predominantly affects women, often during periods of hormonal stimulation. Mediastinal involvement is even more uncommon. We present a case of ETT in a male patient with atypical demographics and a history of renal cell carcinoma, presenting as a large mediastinal mass measuring 6.0 × 4.6 × 4.5 cm ...

Risks Associated With Extent of Surgical Management for Benign, Non‐Toxic Goiter
ABSTRACT Objectives Surgery for benign, non‐toxic thyroid goiter remains the most common indication for thyroidectomy worldwide, yet the optimal surgical extent remains controversial. While total thyroidectomy is assumed to have greater risks than lobectomy, the difference in complications has not been quantified. The objectives of this study are to (1)
