Bilateral Symmetry and Variation of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Inferior Thyroid Artery Patterns: An Intraoperative Study of 150 Nerves

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
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 ...

Effect of Electromyography Findings of Traction‐Related Signal Loss on Prognosis During Neuromonitored Thyroidectomy

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
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.
