A Closer Look at Laryngeal Nerves during Thyroid Surgery: A Descriptive Study of 584 Nerves
Morbidity after thyroidectomy is related to injuries to the parathyroids, recurrent laryngeal (RLN) and external branch of superior laryngeal nerves (EBSLN). Mostly these are due to variations in the surgical anatomy. In this study we analyse the surgical anatomy of the laryngeal nerves in Indian patients undergoing thyroidectomy. Materials and Methods. Retrospective study (February 2008 to Feb...
متن کاملNonrecurrent inferior laryngeal nerves and anatomical findings during thyroid surgery: report of three cases
A nonrecurrent inferior laryngeal nerve (NRILN) is found more frequently on the right side than on the left, and it is closely associated with an aberrant right subclavian artery. The presence of the aberrant right subclavian artery on preoperative computed tomography (CT) scan suggests NRILN; however, different types of branching locations and pathways exist. Here, we report three NRILN cases ...
متن کاملA Closer Look at Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Recent surge of thyroid cancer, especially papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), ignited a debate on over-diagnosis of cancer. Such increase in incidence is a worldwide phenomenon, but it has been the most prominent in Korea. Although increased detection might have played a major role, some evidences suggest that true increase in incidence have also contributed to such phenomenon. PTC is a very co...
متن کاملNeurological Complications in Thyroid Surgery: A Surgical Point of View on Laryngeal Nerves
THE CERVICAL BRANCHES OF THE VAGUS NERVE THAT ARE PERTINENT TO ENDOCRINE SURGERY ARE THE SUPERIOR AND THE INFERIOR LARYNGEAL NERVES: their anatomical course in the neck places them at risk during thyroid surgery. The external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EB) is at risk during thyroid surgery because of its close anatomical relationship with the superior thyroid vessels and the superi...
متن کاملIntraoperative electrophysiologic monitoring of the recurrent laryngeal nerve during thyroid and parathyroid surgery: Experience with 1,381 nerves at risk.
OBJECTIVES The electrophysiologic responses of 1,381 recurrent laryngeal nerves (RLN) during monitored neck surgery were recorded and reviewed. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective case series. METHODS With institutional review board approval, we reviewed thyroid and other neck surgeries performed with intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) between the years 1995 and 2006. This list yielded consecuti...
