Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury and preservation in thyroidectomy
Saudi Medical Journal, 2005 OBJECTIVE: We aim to evaluate the rates of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury after thyroidectomy and to put forward the factors influencing the risk of RLN injury during thyroid surgery. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the records of 418 patients who underwent thyroid surgery for thyroid disease at the Turkish State Railway Hospital, Ankara ...

Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in thyroid surgery: a review [PDF]
ANZ Journal of Surgery, 2012 Abstract Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy ( RLNP ) is an important and potentially catastrophic complication of thyroid surgery. Permanent RLNP occurs in 0.3–3% of cases, with transient palsies in 5–8%.

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

Laryngeal branches of the recurrent laryngeal nerve: A narrative review of human anatomical studies
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) provides motor innervation to all intrinsic laryngeal muscles except the cricothyroid. Detailed knowledge of its terminal branching is essential for thyroid, laryngeal, and voice surgeons. This review synthesizes existing human cadaveric and surgical descriptions of the extralaryngeal and motor branching of ...
