Nerve Stimulator-guided Injection of Autologous Stem Cells Near the Equine Left Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve

Nerve stimulator guided pudendal nerve blocks.

We attribute this to the young age of the patient, prompt treatment, and the rapid resolution of symptoms following institution of therapy. It is possible that older infants and adults exhibit more marked elevations in serum CPK due to their relative increased muscle mass. Also noteworthy, was the self-limited fever and tachycardia following her initial anesthetic. Unexplained fever and tachyca...

Comparison of the Frequency of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury with and without Exploration of the Nerve in Thyroidectomy

Background & Aims: Surgeons are not willing to participate in thyroid surgeries due to dangerous, although rare, complications of the procedure. Post thyroidectomy complications are divided in early and late onset; hypocalcemia, bleeding, thyroid storm and recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury are the most important ones. This study was performed to compare the frequency of recurrent laryngeal...
