Lesions of the laryngeal nerves during thyroidectomy - what's new?
Lesions to the laryngeal nerves, despite their low incidence, are the most severe long term complications after thyroidectomy.Visualization after careful dissection of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is now the gold standard among thyroid surgeons. The Zuckerkandl tubercle (TZ) is a constant landmark for the identification of the RLN. Recent studies show the occurrence of two or more branch...
متن کاملMonitoring the Laryngeal Nerves During Thyroidectomy. Initial 115 Cases Experience.
The lesions of the laryngeal nerves, despite low incidence, are the most severe long term complications after thyroidectomy. Visualization after careful dissection of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is now the golden standard among thyroid surgeons. We assessed traditional landmarks for the identification of RLN and anatomic high risk situation. The study also presented our initial experien...
متن کاملOutcome with immediate direct anastomosis of recurrent laryngeal nerves injured during thyroidectomy.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Management of unrecognized recurrent laryngeal nerve injury typically entails delayed phonosurgical intervention and laryngeal reinnervation, but in cases of recognized injury, nerve anastomosis has been considered standard management. However, the well-organized outcome analysis of nerve anastomosis has been insufficient. We performed immediate direct anastomosis of recur...
متن کاملComparison of the Frequency of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury with and without Exploration of the Nerve in Thyroidectomy
Background & Aims: Surgeons are not willing to participate in thyroid surgeries due to dangerous, although rare, complications of the procedure. Post thyroidectomy complications are divided in early and late onset; hypocalcemia, bleeding, thyroid storm and recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury are the most important ones. This study was performed to compare the frequency of recurrent laryngeal...
متن کاملEffect of recurrent laryngeal nerve identification technique in thyroidectomy on recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis and hypoparathyroidism.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) identification technique used in thyroidectomy affects RLN paralysis and hypoparathyroidism. DESIGN Patients were allocated into 2 groups according to the thyroidectomy technique used to identify the RLN: (1) superior-inferior direction, exploring the nerve where it enters the larynx, followed by superior pedicle ligation; a...
