Surgical Management of Substernal Goiters: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

Laryngoscope
This systematic review and meta‐analysis of 15,706 patients with substernal goiter highlights that while surgery is often prompted by symptoms or imaging evidence of compression, over a quarter of patients were asymptomatic. The majority of cases (88.7%) were successfully managed through a cervical approach, with only a minority requiring thoracic ...

Post‐thyroidectomy voice and swallowing disorders and association with laryngopharyngeal reflux: A scoping review

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 140-149, February 2023., 2023
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.

Gemstone Spectral CT Virtual Noncontrast Images and Iodine Maps for the Characterization of Thyroid Lesions and Distinguishing Thyroid Papillary Carcinoma from Nodular Goiter

International Journal of Endocrinology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
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 ...

Quality of Life and Surgical Outcome of Transoral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy Vestibular Approach (TOETVA) versus Open Thyroid Surgery: Experience from a Single Center in Vietnam

Journal of Thyroid Research, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
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

Case Reports in Surgery, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
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.

Harmonic focus in thyroidectomy for substernal goiter [PDF]

, 2015
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 ...
