ABSTRACT Patients with goiter who have associated RLN palsy and/or hoarseness of voice are usually thought to have a malignant goiter, which has directly or indirectly involved the RLN. However, cases of vocal cord palsy in the setting of benign thyroid disease, though rare has been reported in literature. We present five cases of vocal cord palsy associated with benign thyroid disease and discuss the mechanisms of the vocal cord paralysis and also highlight the impact of early surgery on voice recovery.

Abstract: A recurrent nerve palsy occurring in the presence of a goitre is considered to be caused by thyroid malignancy until proven otherwise.Three cases are described in which benign thyroid disease resulted in recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis. Recent haemorrhage was implicated histologically as the possible aetiology in all three cases. The importance of identifying and preserving the recurrent laryngeal nerve in the surgical management is highlighted.
