Fourth Stage : Formation and Ligature op the Pedicles.—Thisstage of thyroidectomy varies greatly, according to the localization of thetumour. Figs. 338, 339, and 340 show a lateral parenchymatous goitre, wliich hasbeen pedunculated by a single stroke of the ecraseur. Fig. 337 repre- OPERATIONS ON THE NECK 205 sents a unilateral goitre, at the moment following its luxation to the outsideof the wound. The lateral tracheo-thyroid ligament is distinguishable.
