Immediate Intraoperative Repair of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve in Thyroid Surgery

The Laryngoscope, 2020
Recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury is a recognized risk during thyroid and parathyroid surgery and can result in significant morbidity. The aim of this review paper is to consider the optimal approach to the immediate intraoperative repair of the RLN

Intraoperative nerve monitoring is associated with a lower risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury: A national analysis of 17,610 patients.

American Journal of Surgery, 2020
BACKGROUND Based on current evidence, the benefit of intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) in thyroid surgery is equivocal. METHODS All patients who underwent planned thyroid surgery in the 2016-2018 ACS NSQIP procedure-targeted thyroidectomy dataset ...

Lymph node dissection and recurrent laryngeal nerve protection in minimally invasive esophagectomy

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2020
Until now, neoadjuvant therapy plus surgical resection of the primary tumor and potential metastatic lymph nodes (LNs) has been the current optimal treatment for locally advanced thoracic esophageal cancer (EC).

Regeneration of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1982
Ten dogs underwent exploration and section of the right recurrent laryngeal nerve. A segment was removed and both stumps were ligated. Reoperation at three months and again at 15 months revealed neural regeneration through the ligated site and reconstitution of the distal nerve in seven of the eight dogs surviving the 15‐month period.

Paraganglioma of the recurrent laryngeal nerve

The Laryngoscope, 2019
Paragangliomas of the head and neck are rare, and most frequently benign, slow growing, and nonsecretory. The most frequent locations these tumors arise in the head and neck include the carotid body, jugular bulb, vagus nerve, tympanic branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve, and sympathetic chain.

Neurorrhaphy of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 2003
It has been controversial to anastomose the severed recurrent laryngeal nerve after transection because when severed recurrent nerves are directly anastomosed, the vocal cords do not regain normal movements and are fixed in the median. The objective of this study was to learn whether direct neurorrhaphy is necessary if the recurrent laryngeal nerve is ...

Neurofibroma of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve

Chest, 1971
A case of von Recklinghausen's disease is described in which involvement of the recurrent laryngeal nerve by a neurofibroma at the level of the aortic arch caused dysarthria. The tumor was successfully removed at thoracotomy. The literature dealing with this extremely rare occurrence is reviewed.

Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury with the laryngeal mask

ains · Anästhesiologie · Intensivmedizin · Notfallmedizin · Schmerztherapie, 1999
We report a case of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury after anesthesia with the LMA and review the published cases of major pharyngolaryngeal morbidity. Prevention of this and other pharyngolaryngeal injuries probably depends on the skilled application of the correct insertion technique and the use of low intracuff pressures and volumes.

Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve: Its History

World Journal of Surgery, 2014
Alexandria was a remarkable center of learning since its foundation during the fourth century BC. In Alexandria, anatomy was the basis of medicine, and the anatomists could include in their knowledge as well as practice the ancient knowledge of Egyptians, derived from the custom of removing internal organs and of embalming their important people.
