Substernal goiters and sternotomy
The Laryngoscope, 01/27/09
Cohen JP et al. - On the basis of preoperative imaging, it is possible to predict which patients with retrosternal goiters are likely to require median sternotomy. These factors are malignancy, extension into the posterior mediastinum, substernal extension inferior to the level of the aortic arch, and the lack of a solid attachment between the cervical and mediastinal components of the thyroid gland.
