Subcutaneous implantation of benign thyroid tissue is a rare complication of thyroid surgery. Bu durum literatürde endoskopik tirodektomi sonrasında bildirilmiştir. Here we report one case of subcutaneous implantation of multinodular thyroid tissue following total thyroidectomy for multinodular goitre, the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of cervical subcutaneous thyroid tissue implantation.
