Or with doing intubation over a fiberoptic scope? <BR/><BR/>Is there any chance this is something other than goiter? Hygroma? The marked asymmetry is unusual.<BR/><BR/>I guess I'd attack from the patient's left first, figuring I'd have half a chance of avoiding parathyroids over there. In the couple of really huge thyroids I've done, I've been surprised that it wasn't as hard as I'd anticipated, meaning it's possible to peel it clear anteriorly and rotate it.
