DELGADO-ARAMBURO, José Lauro Gilberto et al. Left hemithyroidectomy plus thyroplasty with local anesthesia. A case report. Rev. sanid. mil. [online]. 2018, vol.72, n.3-4, pp.253-257. ISSN 0301-696X.
The association between chordal paralysis and thyroid nodule is suggestive of malignancy, and it is usually a carcinoma of the thyroid gland with an advanced tumor. We present the case of a patient with papillary carcinoma of the thyroid, left cordal paralysis with bronchial aspiration and severe pulmonary complications who underwent left hemithyroidectomy plus thyroplasty with local anesthesia and endoscopic control using handcrafted polytetrafluoroethylene graft. The surgical evolution showed good short-term results (13 months) without related complications, acceptable phonation, with weight gain and without new pulmonary complications. There are no reports of thyroid surgery plus thyroplasty with local anesthesia at the time of this manuscript. A series with a greater number of cases is required in order to draw valid conclusions.
