Abstract In the last 25 years, there have been significant advances in the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid disorders, and new technologies are being implemented. The aim of this study was to analyze 25 years of experience in thyroid surgery in high volume endocrine center in terms of demographic changes, indications for surgical treatment, the type of thyroid surgery and complications. Methods:clinical material from the years 1996-2020 was analyzed ( 3748 patients, 7285 RLN at risk of injury). Two periods: I ( 1996-2003) vs. II (2011-2015 and 2018-2020) were compered. Results: The percentage of patients operated on for thyroid cancer increased (p Conclusions: Over 25 years, there has been a significant increase in the number of surgeries performed for thyroid cancer. The range of surgeries from partial resections to total excision of the thyroid gland has changed, and the increased range of surgeries did not have a statistically significant effect on the number of vocal fold paralysis, but increased the percentage of hypoparathyroidism.
