Non-recurrent laryngeal nerve.
Injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve is a serious complication in thyroid and parathyroid surgery. The anatomy of the recurrent laryngeal nerve is variable. Non-recurrent nerve is a very rare variation of the inferior laryngeal nerve. Because of the anatomical variations of the nerve, preservation of the nerve is the optimal strategy during surgery. In this case report, we present a non-recu...
متن کاملNon-recurrent laryngeal nerve.
AIMS The paper draws attention to the importance of rare, but important anatomical variety of nervus laryngeus recurrens, s.c. nervus laryngeus non-recurrens, for making thyroidectomy safely. Possible differences in the course of the nerve and the way of preparing the gland for minimizing the peroperation damage are presented. PATIENTS Three cases out of 1,200 operations on thyroid gland (0.2...
متن کاملFusion of a cervical sympathetic ganglion with the recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve: a case of false positive non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve.
An anastomosis between the recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve (RILN) and the cervical sympathetic ganglion is seen rarely and might be confused with non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve (NRILN) in patients undergoing thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy. In spite of the fact that NRILN is rarely seen and is an important anatomical structure, when damaged, the quality of life of the patient is ...
متن کاملNon-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve: case report and review of the literature.
Total thyroidectomy is nowadays the operation of choice in the majority of endocrine surgery centers, whether the pathology is benign or malignant. To obtain good results, a thorough knowledge of local anatomy and a profound respect for hemostasis are necessary. Routine, at least visual, identification of the inferior laryngeal nerve (ILN) is considered gold standard and is strongly recommended...
متن کاملImproving Voice Outcomes After Injury to the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve
Objectives: The present study aimed to determine the voice outcomes before and after the administration of voice therapy in patients who suffered an injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve after undergoing thyroidectomy. Methods: The sample consisted of 26 patients (2 males and 24 females) aged between 18 and 80 years (m=55±12) who experienced injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve fol...
