Gene Therapy for Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury [PDF]

open access: yesGenes, 2018
Recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury has considerable clinical implications, including voice and swallowing dysfunction, which may considerably impair the patient’s quality of life. Recovery of vocal fold movement is an essential novel treatment option for RLN injury. The potential of gene therapy for addressing this issue is highly promising.

Transient unilateral combined paresis of the hypoglossal nerve and lingual nerve following intubation anesthesia

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2014
Nerve damage may occur in the pharyngolaryngeal region during general anesthesia. The most frequently injured nerves are the hypoglossal, lingual and recurrent laryngeal. These injuries may arise in association with several factors, such as laryngoscopy,

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells accelerate nerve regeneration and functional recovery in a rat model of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2017
Medialization thyroplasty or injection laryngoplasty for unilateral vocal fold paralysis cannot restore mobility of the vocal fold. Recent studies have shown that transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells is effective in the repair of nerve injuries ...

Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in conventional thyroid surgery

open access: yes, 2023
Introduction: Recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury in conventional thyroid surgery can happen in 1.5-14% of cases. The outcomes of RLN injury can range from mild hoarseness to upper airway obstruction leading to tracheostomy or intubation.

Laryngeal adductor function in experimental models of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury [PDF]

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, 2014
Objectives/HypothesisMost patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis experience some degree of spontaneous reinnervation, which depends upon the type and severity of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury. After partial recovery, the paretic vocal fold may or may not adduct adequately to allow glottic closure, which in turn affects phonatory and ...

Spontaneous laryngeal reinnervation following chronic recurrent laryngeal nerve injury [PDF]

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, 2013
Objectives/HypothesisTo enhance understanding of spontaneous laryngeal muscle reinnervation following severe recurrent laryngeal nerve injury by testing the hypotheses that 1) nerve fibers responsible for thyroarytenoid muscle reinnervation can originate from multiple sources and 2) superior laryngeal nerve is a source of reinnervation.Study ...
