ABSTRACT: Background: Horner’s syndrome is defined as a combination of a series of
symptoms following the injury of oculosympathetic pathway. This dysfunction
is usually acquired during cervical surgery but rarely triggered by thyroid-surgery. Case Presentation: Here we present two cases secondary to
thyroidectomy. Two young female patients, both diagnosed as tumor in left
lobe of thyroid, had Horner’s syndrome after surgery. Fortunately, Horner’s
syndrome was relieved after steroid treatment. Conclusions: Indirect mechanism
involved in the lesion and the direct factor with mistaken section
of nerve fibers may be responsible for Horner’s syndrome. Besides, Horner’s
syndrome after thyroid surgery may be revisable after oral steroid
treatment.
