Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy after thyroidectomy with routine identification of the recurrent laryngeal nerve.

Surgery, 2005
The aim of this study was to assess the risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy (RLNP) after thyroidectomy with routine identification of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) during the operation.The present study was confined to 521 patients, 348 total lobectomies and 178 total thyroidectomies, treated by the same surgeon.

Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and endotracheal intubation

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1975
Voice changes developing after endotracheal intubation have been found to be due to a recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy in four patients. In none of these patients was there any obvious cause and this posed the question whether endotracheal intubation itself could result in a paralysis of the nerve.

An unusual cause of hoarseness and recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy

JAAPA, 2016
ABSTRACT Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and thyroid disease suggest locally invasive thyroid malignancy. In contrast, recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy caused by benign multinodular goiters or ectopic thyroid tissue accounts for only 1% of cases.

Postintubation recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy: A review

Journal of Laryngology and Voice, 2017
Endotracheal intubation is one of the most common procedures performed in the Operating Theatre, Intensive Care Unit or wards, either on an elective or emergency basis. Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury leading to vocal cord paralysis is a lesser known but important complication of intubation.

Differential recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy rates after thyroidectomy.

Surgery, 2014
Recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) palsy is a devastating complication of thyroidectomy. Although neurapraxia is thought to be the most common cause, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. The objectives of this study were to examine the differential palsy rates between the left and right RLNs, and the role of intraoperative nerve swelling as a ...

Risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy in patients undergoing thyroidectomy with and without intraoperative nerve monitoring

open access: yesBritish Journal of Surgery, 2016
Background: Vocal cord palsy occurs in 3-5 per cent of patients after thyroidectomy. To reduce this complication, intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) has been introduced, although its use remains controversial.
