Abstract
Voice quality deteriorates with thyroid operation despite functionally intact recurrent laryngeal nerve. While likely multifactorial, the degree of deterioration is related to the extent of operation and may also be related to the degree of recurrent laryngeal nerve swelling. Spontaneous resolution is expected in the majority of patients.
