The Role of Anatomical Imaging and Intraoperative Neuromonitoring (IONM) for Successful Prediction of a Nonrecurrent Laryngeal Nerve

open access: yesCase Reports in Surgery, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
A nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve (NRLN) is a rare anatomical variant of laryngeal nerves that branches directly from the vagus nerve. The anatomical abnormality makes it difficult to identify the NRLN and results in high incidence of accidental nerve injury during surgery.

Aortosternal Venous Compression: A Review of Two Cases

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Aortosternal venous compression (AVC) is a rare venous compression syndrome that involves brachiocephalic venous compression due to its positioning between the sternum and the aorta. One of the features of AVC involves compression of the left innominate vein with variability in luminal caliber on inspiration and expiration.

Left Nonrecurrent Laryngeal Nerve: A Very Unusual Finding during Thyroid Surgery

open access: yesCase Reports in Surgery, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Background. Identifying the inferior laryngeal nerve is one of the main concerns in thyroid surgery. The typical recurrent position occurs due the relative position between the vagus nerve and the larynx during the last 3 branchial arches development. In rare cases, this nerve does not loop under the right subclavian artery or the aortic arch.

Non‐recurrent laryngeal nerve and arteria lusoria: Rare and little known association

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2021., 2021
Non‐recurrent Laryngeal nerve is constantly associated with Arteria Lusoria. Knowing this association is the basis of predicting this condition preoperatively. Ultrasonography assessment before thyroid and parathyroid surgery should include identification of brachiocephalic trunk division. Absence of its visualization indicates Arteria Lusoria and then

open access: yesSouthern Clinics of Istanbul Eurasia, 2019
Dysphagia that develops in the late period due to vascular compression of the esophagus is a rare condition and is known as dysphagia lusoria. The arterial developmental anomalies that occur during embryological development of the branchial arch system ...

Case report: a step-wise management of concurrent presentation of congenital single lung and aberrant right subclavian artery in an infant girl

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Introduction Congenital single lung (CSL) is a rare condition, and symptomatic patients often present with respiratory distress or recurrent respiratory infection due to mediastinal shift causing vascular or airway compression.

Esophageal compression by a mediastinal vascular structure as a result of a dysphagia lusoria.

open access: yes, 2020
Dysphagia lusoria is an uncommon cause of mechanical dysphagia due to extrinsic compression. It is a congenital aortic root abnormality that occurs as a consequence of an aberrant right subclavian artery, in most cases.

Dysphagia lusoria: uncommon cause of dysphagia in children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Dysphagia lusoria (lusus naturae, latin for "freak of nature") describes dysphagia because of vascular compression of the esophagus. Symptoms, when present, occur at the two extremes of life.

[Dysphagia lusoria].

open access: yesUgeskrift for laeger, 2017
Two weeks of dysphagia or pain during swallowing are cardinal symptoms that trigger immediate referral to a specialist de-partment, where the patient undergo endoscopy and eventual biopsy of the upper GI tract to rule out cancerous disease. In this case, a 90-year-old woman was referred, due to month long pain during swallowing.
