Retained surgical bodies are usually associated with procedures that involve large surgicalspaces, such as thoracic or abdominal cavities; however, caution must also be taken with oto-rhinolaryngology surgeries as they also involve various potential surgical spaces. Retainedsurgical bodies usually reported are the remainders of surgical materials or instruments, butas surgical drains or packing materials may be left behind, special care must be taken whenremoving them. In this article, we report, with a literature review, as case of retained surgicalbody from a surgery 33 years ago that was mistaken for a thyroid nodule.
