Abstract
Background and Aim  During recent years, more radical surgery for thyroid disease, i.e., total instead of subtotal resection, has been evident.
Results following this strategy on national levels are scarce.

Materials and methods  From 2004 to 2006, 26 Scandinavian Departments registered 3,660 thyroid operations in a database. Risk factors for complications
were analyzed with multiple logistic regression.
