Post-thyroidectomy superior laryngeal nerve injury
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2001Voice dysfunction after thyroidectomy may be caused by damage to laryngeal nerves or lesions to strap muscles with laryngo-tracheal movement impairment. Injury to an external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) is sometimes difficult to recognize clinically and its electromyographic incidence ranges from 0% to 58%. In this study we evaluated,

Paroxysmal laryngospasm after laryngeal nerve injury
The Laryngoscope, 1999AbstractObjective: Describe a clinical syndrome of laryngeal hypersensitivity following laryngeal nerve injury. Study Design: Retrospective review of six patients with laryngeal paralysis sustained during neck surgery who presented with paroxysms of coughing and stridor, progressing to brief episodes of complete airway occlusion. Methods: Chart review.

INJURY TO THE RECURRENT LARYNGEAL NERVE
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1937To the Editor:— In the editorial "Total Thyroidectomy for Congestive Heart Failure," appearing inThe Journal, July 17, the following statement occurs: "Injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve was recorded in 8.2 per cent of the cases. In no instance was it bilateral or permanent." This statement includes an opinion widely held among clinicians even ...

Laryngeal Abductor Function After Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury in Cats
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1996To determine the influence of severity of neural injury of t he recurrent laryngeal nerve on recovery of laryngeal abductor function and the importance of synkinesis.The recovery of laryngeal abductor function was studied in 30 cats after crushing (second-degree injury) or transection followed by neurorrhaphy (fifth-degree injury) of the recurrent ...

Laryngeal electromyography in the diagnosis of laryngeal nerve injuries.
Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 1990A practical technique of electromyographic (EMG) sampling of the cricothyroid and thyroarytenoid (vocalis) muscles is described. Quantitative motor unit action potential (MUAP) analysis on a group of seven healthy subjects revealed a mean amplitude of 426 microV for the vocalis and 500 microV for the cricothyroid muscle.

Spontaneous Laryngeal Reinnervation after Recurrent Laryngeal or Vagus Nerve Injury
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2007Objectives: The status of innervation in patients with laryngeal paralysis is somewhat controversial. Electromyographic activity has been frequently documented in the laryngeal muscles of patients with laryngeal paralysis, and animal experiments report a strong propensity for reinnervation after laryngeal nerve ...

Diagnosis and Prognosis of Iatrogenic Injury of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2009Objectives: Following perioperative injury to a macroscopically intact recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN), there are two possible intraneural injury types: 1) axonal injury, including disruption of axons, and 2) conduction block, only affecting the Schwann cells and the nodes of Ranvier.

Superior laryngeal nerve injury from thyroid surgery
Head & Neck, 1995AbstractBackground. Injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve is a well‐recognized complication of thyroid surgery. Injury to the superior laryngeal nerve is less documented, perhaps due to the difficulty in recognizing its manifestations. This study was designed to document the incidence of injury to the superior laryngeal nerve in a series of patients ...

Traction Injury of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve During Thyroidectomy
World Journal of Surgery, 2019AbstractBackgroundLoss of the neuromonitoring signal (LOS) during thyroidectomy signifies recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury, which is one of the common complications, especially by traction injury. Transient intraoperative LOS means spontaneous recovery of nerve function during surgery or within 6‐month post‐surgery.

Laryngeal nerve injuries: Evaluation and management
Operative Techniques in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 1999Vocal fold immobility is a frequently encountered problem in the practice of otolaryngology/head and neck surgery. In many cases, the etiology of this immobility is paralysis or paresis of one or both recurrent laryngeal nerves, although superior laryngeal nerve palsies, combined superior and recurrent laryngeal nerve paralyses, and/or fixation of the ...
