She was referred to the emergency department of our hospital because of dyspnea and chest pain for 20 days, then developed cyanosis and edema of the head and upper extremities. Chest X-ray revealed tracheal repulsion. Cervical and thoracic computed tomography showed a giant solid and a cystic mass in the anterior mediastinum and bilateral pleural effusion. The neck ultrasound did not show any thyroid masses. An exploratory thoracotomy with extensive resection considering the anatomical relation of the mass and the adjacent structures was planned. Immediately after the operation, the patient developed airway complications that resolved in 7 days. The tumor was confirmed pathologically as nodular goiter. The overall outcome of the patient was positive; she is healthy after more than 12 months of follow-up. This report examines the approach to diagnosis and management of one of the most common surgical complication associated with substernal goiters.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0034-1368099","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,27]],"date-time":"2014-02-27T23:52:07Z","timestamp":1393545127000},"page":"051-054","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Transient Palsy of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Postresection of Giant Substernal Goiter"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"03","author":[{"given":"Rwakaryebe","family":"Muhoozi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fenglei","family":"Yu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jingqun","family":"Tang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiang","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Carcinogenesis and Cancer Invasion, Cancer Research Institute, Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,27]]},"reference":[{"issue":"07","key":"ref1","first-page":"179","article-title":"Management of the substernal goiter: a team approach","volume":"51","author":"C R Cannon","year":"2010","journal-title":"J Miss State Med Assoc"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"235","DOI":"10.1089\/thy.2009.0188","article-title":"Superior vena cava syndrome and substernal goiter","volume":"20","author":"M Marcelino","year":"2010","journal-title":"Thyroid"},{"issue":"09","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"732","DOI":"10.1007\/s00595-004-2823-4","article-title":"Surgical management of substernal goiters: clinical experience of 170 cases","volume":"34","author":"Y Erbil","year":"2004","journal-title":"Surg Today"},{"issue":"06","key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"656","DOI":"10.1001\/archsurg.139.6.656","article-title":"Predictors of airway complications after thyroidectomy for substernal goiter","volume":"139","author":"W T Shen","year":"2004","journal-title":"Arch Surg"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"199","DOI":"10.1016\/S0194-5998(98)80014-4","article-title":"Outcome and changing cause of unilateral vocal cord paralysis","volume":"118","author":"H H Ramadan","year":"1998","journal-title":"Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg"},{"issue":"01","key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"124","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-200201000-00022","article-title":"Advantages of recurrent laryngeal nerve identification in thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy and the importance of preoperative and postoperative laryngoscopic examination in more than 100 nerves at risk","volume":"112","author":"M Steurer","year":"2002","journal-title":"Laryngoscope"}],"container-title":["The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0034-1368099.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,28]],"date-time":"2023-09-28T00:03:35Z","timestamp":1695859415000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0034-1368099"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,27]]},"references-count":6,"journal-issue":{"issue":"01","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,12,15]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,12]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0034-1368099","archive":["Portico","CLOCKSS"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2194-7635","2194-7643"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2194-7635","type":"print"},{"value":"2194-7643","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,27]]}}}
