Does goitre size and delayed surgical intervention adversely affect surgical outcome? A multi-centric experience on thyroidectomy

Formosan Journal of Surgery, 2021
Background: Patients with Grade 2 goiters are followed up nonoperatively. Surgical anatomy is altered as nodules/goiter increases to Grade 3. The aim of the study was to analyze the results of thyroidectomy on Grade 2 versus Grade 3 goiter in terms of ...

Intraoperative Neuromonitoring: Evaluating the Role of Continuous IONM and IONM Techniques for Emerging Surgical and Percutaneous Procedures

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Continuous and intermittent intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) has become an important asset for endocrine surgeons over the past few decades. The ability to determine neurophysiologic integrity of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) and external ...

Superior Laryngeal Nerve Signal Attenuation Influences Voice Outcomes in Thyroid Surgery

, 2021
Objectives/Hypothesis: The objective was to identify whether injury of the external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) or changes in EBSLN parameters after dissection during thyroidectomies correlate with changes in voice quality ...

Correlation Between Objective and Subjective High-Pitched Voice Impairment in Patients After Thyroid Surgery

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
ObjectivesHigh-pitched voice impairment (HPVI) is not uncommon in patients without recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) or external branch of superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) injury after thyroidectomy.

Randomized Controlled Trial of Visualization versus Neuromonitoring of the External Branch of the Superior Laryngeal Nerve during Thyroidectomy

World Journal of Surgery, Volume 36, Issue 6, Page 1340-1347, June 2012., 2012
Abstract Background Injury to the external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) during thyroidectomy results in a lowered fundamental frequency of the voice and deteriorated voice performance in producing high‐frequency sounds. It remains unclear if the use of intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) can improve the clinical outcome of ...

A Closer Look at Laryngeal Nerves during Thyroid Surgery: A Descriptive Study of 584 Nerves

Anatomy Research International, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Morbidity after thyroidectomy is related to injuries to the parathyroids, recurrent laryngeal (RLN) and external branch of superior laryngeal nerves (EBSLN). Mostly these are due to variations in the surgical anatomy. In this study we analyse the surgical anatomy of the laryngeal nerves in Indian patients undergoing thyroidectomy. Materials and Methods.

Use of the Nerve Integrity Monitor during Thyroid Surgery Aids Identification of the External Branch of the Superior Laryngeal Nerve

, 2015
BACKGROUND: The external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) is at risk during thyroid surgery. Despite meticulous dissection and visualization, the EBSLN can be mistaken for other structures.

Value‐Based Neuromonitoring in Thyroidectomy: A Comprehensive Cost–Utility Analysis

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 7, Page 3271-3283, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the cost–utility of major intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) strategies in thyroidectomy across commercial platforms, and to quantify the impact of continuous IONM (CIONM), automated nerve trend monitoring, postoperative laryngoscopy policy, and technical failure on total episode costs and medicolegal burden.
