Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury Following Thyroidectomy Challenges to the Anaesthesiologist [PDF]
Injury to the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve is uncommon, but one of the complications of thyroidectomy We report a case of 40 years old female, who underwent total thyroidectomy, following which developed recurrent laryngeal nerve injury and vocal cord palsy,

An Unusual Finding of Double Fused YShaped Loop of Ansa Cervicalis and its Clinical Significance [PDF]
The ansa cervicalis (AC) is a neural loop formed by union of superior root derived from ventral ramus of C1 through hypoglossal nerve and inferior root derived from ventral rami of C2 and C3. The aim of this case report is to emphasize the anatomical

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

The Non-Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve: a meta-analysis and clinical considerations [PDF]
Background The Non-Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve (NRLN) is a rare embryologically-derived variant of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve (RLN). The presence of an NRLN significantly increases the risk of iatrogenic injury and operative complications.

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