description •Clinicians should pay attention to several influencing factors for RLN injury.•Safe TEG-D thresholds were 2.2 mm for benign nodules and 4.9 mm for malignant ones.•TEG-D was an independent risk factor for recovery time of hoarseness. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury after microwave ablation (MWA) of thyroid nodules and to identify factors influencing the recovery time of post-procedure hoarseness. We retrospectively analyzed data from patients who underwent MWA for thyroid nodules at five hospitals between November 2018 and July 2022. Patients were divided into malignant and benign nodule groups. Variables analyzed included nodule size and location, the shortest distance from nodules to the thyroid capsule and tracheoesophageal groove (TEG-D), and ablation parameters. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors. Kaplan-Meier and Cox analyses were used to evaluate the recovery time of hoarseness after MWA. The study included 1,216 patients (mean age 44 ± 12 [SD] years; 901 women) with 602 malignant nodules and 614 benign nodules. The posterior capsule distance (PCD) and TEG-D were identified as independent influencing factors for hoarseness in all patients (P = 0.014, OR = 0.068; P
