Laryngeal branches of the recurrent laryngeal nerve: A narrative review of human anatomical studies

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) provides motor innervation to all intrinsic laryngeal muscles except the cricothyroid. Detailed knowledge of its terminal branching is essential for thyroid, laryngeal, and voice surgeons. This review synthesizes existing human cadaveric and surgical descriptions of the extralaryngeal and motor branching of ...

A Fatal Case of Ruptured Aberrant Left Subclavian Artery into the Oesophagus

Medico-Legal Journal of Sri Lanka, 2023
A right-sided aortic arch is a rare congenital abnormality and could be sometimes associated with an aberrant left subclavian artery which runs behind the oesophagus. It is usually incidentally diagnosed during adulthood unless it gives pressure effects on the adjacent structures. Here we present a case of 35-year-old mother with a period of amenorrhea

Evaluating discrepancies between high‐yield neuroscience conditions in preclerkship medical education and national clinical incidence

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Medical education must balance foundational science with clinical relevance. Increasing emphasis on standardized assessments has led to prioritization of “high‐yield” conditions—those most likely to be assessed. Subsequently, educators and students often prioritize these conditions.

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention in a patient with right internal mammary artery graft originating from arteria lusoria dextra [PDF]

Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2013
Introduction. Congenital anomalies of the aortic arch, although numerous and heterogeneous, occur in less than 1% of individuals at autopsies. Left aortic arch with an aberrant right subclavian artery, also called arteria lusoria dextra, is the most ...

Learning beyond the lab: A gamified approach to anatomy education in a museum‐based experience

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy education, traditionally rooted in descriptive instruction and cadaveric dissection, is undergoing a significant transformation through the integration of educational technologies and contemporary pedagogical strategies. Among these, active learning methodologies, such as gamified‐based learning, have emerged as approaches designed to ...

Repair of thoracic aortic aneurysm with bilateral aberrant subclavian artery

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
We present a rare anatomical configuration of a 19-year-old woman, characterized by descending thoracic aortic aneurysm with right aberrant subclavian arteries with a Kommerell's diverticulum in a left aortic arch. The complexity of this vascular anomaly

Aberrant left subclavian artery.

Folia morphologica, 2002
This paper describes a rare case in which the left subclavian artery originates from a common stem arising from the aortic arch and splits into a brachiocephalic trunk and a left subclavian artery. The course of other large vessels of the aortic arch in this case are typical.

Bilateral Symmetry and Variation of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Inferior Thyroid Artery Patterns: An Intraoperative Study of 150 Nerves

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The anatomical relationship of the inferior thyroid artery (ITA) and the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is highly variable. This study aims to evaluate bilateral RLN branching patterns and their relationship to the ITA within the same patient, predicting contralateral anatomical variations and ultimately reducing intraoperative risk of RLN ...

Structural aortic arch shift and supraaortic angle configuration changes after subclavian to carotid transposition as a proposed mechanism for relief of severe esophageal compression in aberrant subclavian artery anatomy

Annals of Vascular Surgery - Brief Reports and Innovations
Objective: – Adult patients with a right-sided aortic arch and aberrant left subclavian artery with a co-existing Kommerell’s diverticulum (KD) can develop clinically significant esophageal compression requiring staged, open, followed by endovascular ...

Hybrid repair of aberrant right subclavian artery with aortic dissection caused by Kommerell diverticulum

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) with associated Kommerell diverticulum (KD) is a rare congenital aortic disease. KD patients have a high risk of rupture, dissection, and compression of adjacent structures.
