Thyroidectomy is an operation that the ear nose throat doctors use increasing frequency every day. Although surgery is not technically very difficult, it can be boring when the complication develops. Though thyroid development anomalies are rare, they are important because they can increase the rates of complications during surgery. Thyroid isthmus agenesis is one of these anomalies and a few cases have been in the literature. We presented a case in this presentation of the fact that a total thyroidectomy was applied due to a 51 year old multinodular guatr and that there was not an intraoperative asthma noticed. Patients with these developmental anomalies should be more careful with regard to possible complications during surgery and should be remembered that other anomalies may be accompanied.
