Our objective is to provide a comprehensive analysis of cervical and substernal goiter data in two paired articles. This second article focuses on surgical management. The following null hypotheses regarding goiter excision have been tested: 1) there are no goiter\u2010associated risk factors for difficult intubation; 2) there are no predictive risk factors for recurrent laryngeal nerve injury (RLN) or postoperative hypocalcemia; 3) there is no difference in RLN injury with neural monitoring versus without.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Study Design:<\/jats:title><jats:p>A retrospective review of 200 consecutive thyroidectomies meeting inclusion\/exclusion criteria for cervical or substernal goiter.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Temporary RLN paralysis occurred in 1.8% of nerves at risk and was significantly lower with recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring than without. Permanent hypoparathyroidism occurred in 3% overall. Bilateral cervical goiter emerged as a definitive risk factor for difficult intubation (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = .05, univariate), recurrent laryngeal nerve injury (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = .002), and postoperative hypocalcemia (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = .001). Female patients (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = .04) or patients with positive family history (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = .01) were more likely to need repeat surgery.
