Abstract

Approximately 25% of goiters extend to the substernal area, and most of them can be removed through a cervical incision. Goiters that extend into the posterior mediastinum are very rare, and resection usually requires thoracotomy. In recent years, there have been several reports of resection of substernal goiters by minimally invasive surgery. Here, we present a 75-year-old female with a giant substernal goiter who successfully underwent resection of the goiter extending to the posterior mediastinum using low cervical incision combined with video-assisted thoracoscopy.

颈低切口联合电视胸腔镜切除延伸至后纵隔的甲状腺肿1例报告及文献复习

大约25%的甲状腺肿延伸到胸骨下区域，其中大多数可以通过宫颈切口切除。延伸到后纵隔的甲状腺肿非常罕见，切除通常需要开胸手术。近年来，有几篇关于微创手术切除胸骨下甲状腺肿的报道。在这里，我们介绍了一位患有巨大胸骨后甲状腺肿的75岁女性，她成功地采用低颈切口结合电视胸腔镜切除了延伸至后纵隔的甲状腺肿。
