ABSTRACT

Since substernal goiter first being described by Haller in 1749, a consensus on the definition of this entity has not been ensured, yet. Despite substernal goiter or retrosternal goiter is delineated as an enlarged thyroid gland with a component extending into the mediastinum, at least 10 definitions have described being able to depict the most accurate definition for substernal goiter. Of no te, no consensus still has been declared on the therapeutic management of asymptomatic substernal goiter. It should be pointed out that, the American Association of Endocrine Surgeons (AAES), Guidelines for the Definitive Surgical Management of Thyroid Disease in Adults reported approximately 9% to 13% of substernal goiters are being harbored thyroid malignancy. The following vignette case describes the clinical features of a symptomatic substernal goiter with chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, her treatment by sutureless total thyroidectomy with intermittent-intraoperative neural monitoring (I-IONM), and the energy-based device without sternotomy, and the response of an adult who presented with a family history of malignant histopathology, differentiated thyroid carcinoma, which was exposed to the postoperative radioactive iodine ablation. We may recommend dividing the branches of superior thyroid arteries and the superior thyroid veins individually and exploring the fibrous Ligament of Berry, the true Ligament of Berry, with its safe interrelation to the inferior laryngeal nerve, finically, which may be regarded as different peas in a pod in a complete sutureless thyroidectomy for substernal goiter with thyroiditis in thyroidology.
