AIMS: Neurinoma of the recurrent nerve presented a rare diagnosis in thyroid gland surgery. METHODS: A case report is presented and the result of the neurinoma of the recurrent nerve extirpation--nerve paresis--is discussed with the rare results in literature. RESULTS: The preoperative diagnosis is difficult and intraoperative histological diagnosis was not correct. The postoperative paresis of the nerve was clinical only very light. CONCLUSION: The problematical neuromonitoring by isolated nodes in parathyroideal regions and after their exstirpation must lead to the suspicion of a recurrent nerve neurinoma.
