Summary : Objectives: To document the incidence, outcome and variables that increase the risk for unilateral laryngeal paralysis after loboisthmectomy performed according to the intracapsular dissection technique. Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis of an inception cohort of 317 loboisthmec­tomies conse­cu­tively performed at a single institution by the same surgeon during the years 2002-2007 using the intra capsular dissection without laryngeal nerve dissection, neuro­monitoring and modern hemostasis techniques (Ligasure, Ultracision). The immediate and definite rate for unilateral laryngeal nerve paralysis is docu­men­ted. A statistical analysis is performed for potential relation between these events and the following variables : age, gender, co­mor­bidity, tracheal com­pres­­sion and intra­­thoracic charac­te­ristics of the thyroid lesion, side of the loboisthmectomy, etiology of the thyroid lesion (benign, mali­gnant, hyperthyroidy), asso­cia­ted thyroiditis, size of the largest resected nodule and weight of the resected lobe. Results: The immediate unilateral laryngeal nerve paralysis incidence was 1,2%. Recovery of motion occur­red by the 1st, 3rd, 5th or 9th post operative month resulting in a 0% incidence for definitive unilateral laryngeal nerve paralysis. No significant statistical relation was noted between immediate unilateral laryngeal nerve paralysis and the variables under analysis. Conclusion: Based on the current series and the review of the medical literature, it appears that the loboisthmectomy accor­ding to the intra capsular technique without inferior laryn­geal nerve identification, in patients not previously operated, perfor­med according to is a surgical technique whose goal is to ascent the thyroid lobe and dissect the region of the nerve pene­tra­tion within the larynx by the end of the resection, does not increase the risk for transient or permanent unilateral laryngeal nerve paralysis.
