Techniques of detecting recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy in patients undergoing thyroid surgery: Pearls and pitfalls. [PDF]
Though permanent vocal cord palsy consequent to recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury is rare following thyroidectomies, its consequences are grave enough for it to be the most feared complication postoperatively.

Risk Factors for Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Palsy in Thyroid Surgery: A Single Center Experience of 1147 Procedures with Intermittent Intraoperative Neuromonitoring. [PDF]
Background: Recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) palsy is one possible complication during thyroid surgery. Intraoperative neuromonitoring and visualization of the nerve during surgery are standard procedures to reduce the risk of RLN palsy.

"Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy" is not differentiated enough. [PDF]
Unfortunately, the authors of this article kept referring to “recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy” in an undifferentiated manner. This “diagnosis” can conceal a minimum of nine different forms of laryngeal palsy, whose treatment and prognosis vary—and this excludes the differential diagnosis of non-surgical and non-neurogenic fixation (1, 3).
