A Rare Variation of Inferior Laryngeal Nerve: Nonrecurrent Laryngeal Nerve.
A nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve variant of the inferior laryngeal nerve is very rarely seen, and surgeons should keep it in mind during thyroid surgery. Preoperative findings, like situs invertus and dysphagia lusoria, may be suggestive of a nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve. However, these findings always have not to be together with nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve, like our case.
متن کاملNonrecurrent Laryngeal Nerve in the Era of Intraoperative Nerve Monitoring
Nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve (non-RLN) is an anatomical variation increasing the risk of vocal cord palsy. Prediction and early identification of non-RLN may minimize such a risk of injury. This study assessed the effect of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) on the detection of non-RLN. A total of 462 (236 right) nerves in 272 patients were identified and totally exposed, and all intraoperat...
متن کاملPreoperative diagnosis and intraoperative protection of nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve: A review of 5 cases
BACKGROUND Nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve (NRLN) is a risk factor for nerve injury during thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy. It is usually associated with abnormal vasculature that can be identified by several imaging methods. The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyze the preoperative diagnosis and intraoperative protection of NRLN. MATERIAL AND METHODS Of the 7169 patients who unde...
متن کاملThe nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve: anatomic and electrophysiologic algorithm for reliable identification.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) intraoperative monitoring (IONM) provides a new functional dynamic that adds to visual identification of the RLN to optimize its intraoperative management. Intraoperative monitoring has been applied to the initial identification of the RLN. We now apply IONM to the identification of the nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve (NRLN) and provide ele...
متن کاملIncreased and safer detection of nonrecurrent inferior laryngeal nerve after preoperative ultrasonography.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Right nonrecurrent inferior laryngeal nerve (NRLN) is an anatomical variant reported with a variable prevalence (0.3%-6%). It is associated with some arterial abnormalities (absence of the brachiocephalic trunk and presence of a right aberrant subclavian lusorian artery) that may be identified by preoperative ultrasonography (pUS). NRLN represents a major morbidity risk fa...
