Evaluation of functional recovery of recurrent laryngeal nerve using transoral laryngeal bipolar electromyography: a rat model.
OBJECTIVES We developed a standardized method of minimally invasive transoral laryngeal (ToL) bipolar electromyography (EMG) for evaluation of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) recovery after a controlled crush injury in a rat model. METHODS Ten 200- to 250-g Sprague-Dawley rats underwent a controlled crush injury to the left RLN performed with 60 seconds of use of a calibrated aneurysm clamp w...
متن کاملEffect of recurrent laryngeal nerve identification technique in thyroidectomy on recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis and hypoparathyroidism.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) identification technique used in thyroidectomy affects RLN paralysis and hypoparathyroidism. DESIGN Patients were allocated into 2 groups according to the thyroidectomy technique used to identify the RLN: (1) superior-inferior direction, exploring the nerve where it enters the larynx, followed by superior pedicle ligation; a...
متن کاملRecurrent laryngeal nerve recovery patterns assessed by serial electromyography.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Following acute injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN), laryngeal electromyography (LEMG) is increasingly being used to determine prognosis for recovery. The LEMG findings change during the recovery process, but the timing of these changes is not well described. In this canine study, LEMGs were obtained serially following model RLN injuries. STUDY DESIGN Animal St...
متن کاملImproving Voice Outcomes After Injury to the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve
Objectives: The present study aimed to determine the voice outcomes before and after the administration of voice therapy in patients who suffered an injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve after undergoing thyroidectomy. Methods: The sample consisted of 26 patients (2 males and 24 females) aged between 18 and 80 years (m=55±12) who experienced injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve fol...
متن کاملContinuous intraoperative vagus nerve stimulation for identification of imminent recurrent laryngeal nerve injury.
BACKGROUND Conventional intraoperative nerve monitoring, predicated on intermittent stimulation, can predict recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) palsy only after the damage has been done. METHODS Fifty-two patients (52 nerves at risk) who underwent continuous intraoperative nerve monitoring (CIONM) for thyroid surgery via vagus nerve stimulation had their electromyographic (EMG) tracings recorded...
