A Study of Time to Recovery Following Loss of Neuromonitoring Signal of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve in Thyroid Surgery

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Injuries of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) during thyroidectomy although infrequent can lead to major morbidity. Permanent RLN injury is uncommon; however, temporary neurapraxia and loss of signal (LOS) during intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) are seen more frequently. This study aimed to identify factors associated with type I (segmental) and
