متن کاملIdentification and Preservation of External Branch of Superior Laryngeal Nerve in Thyroidectomy
The basic principle of head and neck surgery is based on the identification and preservation of important structures, rather than avoidance. This principle is also applicable to identification and preservation of external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) as a standard routine in all thyroid surgeries. During thyroid surgery, the EBSLN is clearly at risk due to its close proximity ...
متن کاملVoice changes after thyroidectomy: role of the external laryngeal nerve.
Hitherto voice changes have been regarded as an infrequent complication of thyroidectomy and damage to the recurrent laryngeal nerve has been given as their major cause. Voice function was assessed in 325 patients after thyroidectomy. Permanent changes occurred in 35 (25%) after subtotal thyroidectomy and in 19 (11%) after lobectomy. The commonest cause of voice change appeared to be injury to ...
متن کاملIdentification of External Branch of the Superior Laryngeal Nerve in Thyroid Surgery: Is It Always Possible?
The EBSLN supplies the cricothyroid muscle. This muscle increases the longitudinal tension of vocal folds and raises the pitch of voice [1]. The effects of the injury are subtle and include mild to moderate breathy voice, reduction in the average pitch of voice, especially the inability to raise the pitch of voice that leads to reduction of the voice range [2]. The severity would vary according...
