                            <p>Giriş: Plonjan guatr, tiroid bezinin mediasten içinde uzanması olarak tanımlanır. Hastalarda nadiren de olsa vokal kord paralizisi, büyük damar basısına bağlı vena kava süperior sendromu ve horner sendromu görülebilir. Olgu Sunumu: Yetmiş yedi yaşındaki bayan hasta, nefes darlığı, yüzde kızarıklık ve şişlik nedeniyle acil servise başvurdu. Hastanın fizik muayenesinde; nabız: 135/dk, tansiyon arteriyal: 140/90 mmHg, solunum sayısı: 28/dakika, SpO2 : %88 idi. Boyun venöz dolgunluğu artmış, her iki troid lobu palpabl, sağ akciğerde solunum sesleri azalmıştı. Kontrastlı toraks tomografisinde (CT) Plonjan guatr izlendi. Tedavide nazal O2  4 L/dk, budenosid 200 mcg 3X2 puff, metilprednizolon 250 mg iv. başlandı. Sonuç: Dispne ile gelen hastalarda retrosternal (plonjan) guatr olasılığı da düşünülmelidir.</p></trans-abstract>

Vocal cord paralysis, vena cava superior syndrome due to the compression on major vessels, and Horner syndrome can be rarely seen in patients.Case Report: A 77-year-old female patient presented to our emergency department with complaints of dyspnea, flushing, and edema on her face. Her vital signs were as follows: BP: 140/90 mm Hg, HR: 135 bpm, respiratory rate: 28 per minute, and SpO2: 88%. On her physical examination, there was increased jugular venous distension, both thyroid lobes were palpable, and breath sounds decreased in the right lung. A contrast-enhanced pulmonary computed tomography (CT) was planned, and substernal goiter was seen on CT. Then, 4 L/min supplemental O2, 2 puffs of 200 mcg budenoside 3 times a day and 250 mg IV methylprednisolone therapy were started.Conclusion: In patients presenting with dyspnea, retrosternal (substernal) goiter should also be considered</p></abstract>
