Abnormalities in the embryologic development and migration of the thyroid gland can result in ectopic thyroid tissue. Ectopic mediastinal goiters are somewhat uncommon developmental anomalies, accounting for less than 1% of all thyroid ectopies. Graves’ disease within mediastinal goiter is a very rare entity, described only in few cases in English literature. Pretracheal thyroidectomy alone doe...
Dyshormonogenetic goiter resulting in neck swelling in a fetus is very unusual. We present a case of congenital dyshormonogenetic goitre in a fetus with hypothyroidism and respiratory distress at birth. He underwent planned EXIT procedure.
Because of their tendency to progressively enlarge with compression of adjacent structures, as well as the small chance of malignancy, most intrathoracic goiters should be excised surgically. Most anterior substernal goiters and some ipsilateral posterior mediastinal goiters can be removed safely through a cervical incision. Large posterior mediastinal goiters, contralateral retrotracheal or re...
Thyroid surgery is considered to be a risk factor for difficult airway management. We prospectively studied 324 consecutive patients undergoing thyroid surgery to investigate the incidence of difficult intubation as evaluated by the intubation difficulty scale as well as other specific predictive factors. The overall incidence of difficult intubation was 11.1% (95% CI: 7.6-14.5). Median intubat...
We report a 55-year-old female who presented with trochanteric fracture of right femur. Examination and investigation revealed a huge retrosternal goiter with compression of great vessels which was asymptomatic for more than two decades. Subsequent investigation confirmed it as a case of toxic multinodular goitre with subclinical hyperthyroidism which is the possible cause of secondary osteopor...
