متن کاملContinuous Vagus Nerve Monitoring during Carotid Endarterectomy
Backgrounds: Injury to the vagus nerve or one of its branches during carotid endarterectomy can result in vocal fold paralysis but the exact mechanism of injury responsible for vocal fold paralysis after carotid endarterectomy is unclear. Aims: This study was performed to identify potential predictors of vagus nerve injury and obtain feedback by application of intraoperative continuous vagus ne...
متن کاملAncient schwannoma of the vagus nerve, resection with continuous monitoring of the inferior laryngeal nerve.
Schwannomas (neurinomas, neurilemmomas) are benign, single, slow-growing encapsulated tumors that originate in the sheath of cranial or spinal nerves, and that rarely undergo malignant transformation. Descriptions have shown that about 25% of cases occur in the head and neck; there are only 95 references of vagus nerve involvement. These tumors appear mostly between the third and fifth decades ...
متن کاملCervico-mediastinal schwannoma of the vagus nerve: resection with intraoperative nerve monitoring.
Schwannomas are usually benign, single, encapsulated, slow-growing tumours originating from cranial or spinal nerve sheaths. The vagus nerve involvement at the mediastinal inlet is very uncommon. For anatomical reasons, the resection of cervical and mediastinal schwannoma of the vagus nerve has a high risk of vocal fold paralysis. We describe the case of a 67-year-old female with a cervico-medi...
متن کاملVagus nerve stimulation therapy
Over the past 5 years, and especially within the last year, there has been a rapid expansion of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)-related preclinical research, as well as clinical studies in indications other than epilepsy. The research advances in understanding VNS are occurring in the midst of a blossoming of other forms of therapeutic brain stimulation, such as electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), t...
