Preserving vocal cord function: Continuous intraoperative vagus nerve monitoring in total thyroidectomy

Ceylon Journal of Otolaryngology
A 42-year-old female patient who underwent left hemithyroidectomy for a benign thyroid nodule, was referred for further management, as histology revealed a minimally invasive follicular carcinoma requiring completion thyroidectomy as recommended by Oncologists. She had developed unilateral vocal card palsy following the initial hemithyroidectomy.

Perioperative analgesia and postoperative motor function after saphenous and sciatic nerve blocks in goats undergoing bilateral stifle surgery: A pilot study

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The combination of femoral and sciatic nerve blocks offers adequate perioperative analgesia for goats undergoing stifle surgery. However, postoperatively, residual motor dysfunction may lead to distress and discomfort. This study evaluated whether combined saphenous and sciatic nerve blocks provide adequate perioperative analgesia ...

Treatment of Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea With a Domestic Implantable Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulator: A Case Report

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Implantable hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) is an established neuromodulatory therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients intolerant to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). However, no domestically developed HNS system has been clinically implemented in China to date.

Expanding the Limits of Robotic Thyroidectomy: Management of a Rare Presentation of Thyroid Carcinoma With Supraglottic Extension

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thyroid carcinoma ranks as the seventh most common malignancy globally by incidence, though its mortality remains relatively low. We present a rare case of papillary thyroid carcinoma in a 32‐year‐old male, with supraglottic extension of the right thyroid lobe, managed successfully using a robotic‐assisted bilateral axillo‐breast approach ...
