To demonstrate the application of Thunderbeat™ in a retroauricular approach thyroidectomy for the first time in the existing world literature to the best of our knowledge. Forty-five-year-old female patient with nodular goiter underwent retroauricular approach thyroidectomy using Thunderbeat™ with an open fine jaw. The resultant hemostasis was superior to the conventional techniques with excellent visibility and since the surgery was done by a remote access retroauricular approach, patient was extremely satisfied with the cosmetic outcome. Thunderbeat™ is a versatile technological innovation, which can be utilized in a range of head and neck surgeries to produce a better surgical outcome and high patient satisfaction.
