Anatomic variations of the non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2009
The non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve (NIRLN) is a rare anomaly (0.5–0.6% on the right side, extremely rare on the left side (0.004%)), which increases the risk of damage to the nerve during surgery. The right NRILN is associated with a right subclavian artery arising directly from the aortic arch.

A rare case: Non-recurrent laryngeal nerve

open access: yesJournal of Basic and Clinical Health Sciences, 2021
Non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve (NRLN) is a very rare nerve variation seen during thyroidectomy. Identification and preservation of this nerve is crucial for post-operative life of the patient. In this paper, we presented a 55-year old female patient with right NRLN identified during operation performed due to multinodular goiter (MNG).

Non-recurrent laryngeal nerve

open access: yesJournal of British Surgery, 1978
Abstract Two cases of a right non-recurrent nerve were encountered in 203 thyroidectomies. In its abnormal, non-recurrent course the nerve passes transversely from under the carotid sheath and takes a position which is at right-angles to the normal recurrent laryngeal nerve.

Efficacy of ultrasonography in identification of non-recurrent laryngeal nerve

open access: yesInternational Journal of Surgery, 2012
The aim of this prospective study was to identify the arterial anomalies constantly associated with nonrecurrent inferior laryngeal nerve by preoperative ultrasonography and impact on recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve palsy (RILN).The study included 332 patients who underwent thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy between 2009 February and 2011 October ...

Non-Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve - A Surgical Challenge

open access: yesJournal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare, 2020
Both the cases discussed here had right sided NRLN, out of which one had associated aberrant right subclavian artery. None had iatrogenic nerve palsy. Dissection was difficult as during the routine procedure of dissection, the nerve was not found in its usual route and was found that the right laryngeal nerve was not recurrent and originated directly ...

Non-Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Aberrant Vasculature [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Case Reports in Medicine, 2013
Background: The incidence of non-recurrent laryngeal (RLN) nerve is around 0.5%. Injury to the nerve results in significant morbidity. Methods and Results: A case of a 63-year old lady with a non-RLN and an aberrant subclavian artery was described.
