Background Killian-Jamieson diverticulum is a rare pharyngoesophageal diverticulum. The risk of intraoperative injury of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is high during surgical resection of Killian-Jamieson diverticulum because the RLN usually runs ...

ABSTRACT The anatomical relationship of the inferior thyroid artery (ITA) and the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is highly variable. This study aims to evaluate bilateral RLN branching patterns and their relationship to the ITA within the same patient, predicting contralateral anatomical variations and ultimately reducing intraoperative risk of RLN ...

ABSTRACT Background Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is a reliable tool to detect electromyographic loss of signal (LOS). Here, we investigated the effect of electromyography features of traction‐related LOS on prognosis. Methods Thyroidectomy patients with a traction‐related LOS were included.

Benign Thyroid Disease causing RLN Palsy
Patients with goiter who have associated RLN palsy and/or hoarseness of voice are usually thought to have a malignant goiter, which has directly or indirectly involved the RLN.

ABSTRACT Background Tissue exposure to cold temperatures is common in clinical practice, yet the safety of exposing the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) to cold remains unclear. This study evaluated temperature‐dependent effects of cold exposure on RLN function.

Linear components of RFs estimated with HSM are consistent with rLN-derived RFs.
For neurons where RFs can be discerned from the noise, the rLN model produces very similar RFs for both experimental responses (A columns) and HSM responses (B columns), indicating that the HSM is compatible with the RFs estimated by rLN.

Laryngeal Cryotherapy for Neurogenic Cough: Safety, Feasibility, and Prospective Outcomes
A prospective clinical trial investigated the safety and clinical outcomes of office‐based selective laryngeal cryotherapy for patients with refractory chronic cough. Patient were followed for 6 months posttreatment and had durable improvement in cough severity index and urge‐to‐cough scores and no serious long term adverse effects.

Representative images for EBUS and EUS in detecting RLN lymph node metastases.
(a) An EBUS image showed an enlarged right RLN lymph node with a round shape, a distinct margin and a hypoechoic internal echo with obliterated hilar architecture. The lymph node metastases was diagnosed by EBUS. The patient accepted radical resection of

Recurrent laryngeal nerve’s course running anteriorly to a thyroid tumor
The thyroid gland's neurovascular relationship is commonly portrayed as the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) coursing posteriorly to the thyroid gland. We report a rare case with the RLN running anteriorly to a thyroid tumor.
