    • Endocrinology
    • Surgery

    Background:

    • Substernal goiter is defined as thyroid enlargement with the greater mass inferior to the thoracic inlet.
    • Most substernal goiters originate from the cervical thyroid gland, with truly ectopic mediastinal goiters being rare.
    • The condition typically affects individuals in their fifth decade, with a predominance of women.
