Fusion 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 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 کاملA non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve in a man undergoing thyroidectomy: a case report
INTRODUCTION A non-recurrent variant of the inferior laryngeal nerve has been seldom reported. These reports are mostly based on cadaveric dissection studies or large chart review studies in which the emphasis is placed on the determination of the frequency of the variation, and not on the clinical appearance of this variant. We graphically describe the intraoperative identification of a non-re...
متن کاملA 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.
