Thyroid goiters can be huge and can grow down into the chest [ Ссылка ]. An excellent thyroid surgeon can remove these substernal thyroid goiters from the neck without cracking or splitting the chest open. Watch Dr Gary Clayman, one of the world’s best thyroid surgeons remove a huge thyroid goiter located inside the chest through a modest neck incision. If your doctor says you need to have your chest opened so your sub-sternal thyroid goiter can be removed, then it is time to find another surgeon. Almost every sub-sternal thyroid goiter can be removed with a neck operation. In this case, a different surgeon tried to do this surgery and quit, saying the chest needed to be opened like open heart surgery to get the large goiter out. The patient was then sent to Dr Clayman and even with all the scar tissue from the previous surgery attempt, he removed the entire substernal thyroid goiter without chest surgery.
