IntroductionThe recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) originates from the Vagus nerve intrathoracically. It passes through the tracheoesophageal groove (TEG) in the neck and different variations in this section were observed. The RLN is at highest risk for injury during the thyroid surgery. Therefore, it is important to know variations to decrease the injury effectively.Presentation of caseA 50 years-old woman with no thyroid related complaints except for enlargement of the thyroid gland in recent 12-months that annoyed her during neck movement and for aesthetic features. Medical, surgical, drugs, irradiation history, laboratory data, and physical examination was unremarkable except for multi-lobulated enlarged thyroid gland. The CT scanning study revealed intrathoracic extension of the gland. Patient underwent total thyroidectomy with suspicious diagnosis of multinodular goiter which was confirmed later by pathologic study. Intraoperative exploration of the right RLN discovered an intracranial branch originating from the recurrent laryngeal trunk just beneath the inferior thyroid artery (ITA) at the level of the nerve intersection. The branch then passed laterally about 1 cm and penetrated in ipsilateral carotid sheath.DiscussionThe RLN has different anatomical variations in either the right or the left side of the neck. However extra-laryngeal nerve branching is the most common variation but other seldom variations including the non-RLN, and intracranial branch should be mentioned by surgeon intraoperatively.ConclusionTo decrease iatrogenic injuries to RLN and its associated nerve branches knowledge of the nerve anatomy is mandatory for surgeon to prevent morbid side effects. 相似文献

Background
Due to limited space in the left upper mediastinum, complete dissection of lymph nodes (LN) along left recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is difficult. We herein present a novel method for lymphadenectomy along the left RLN during thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the semi-prone position for esophageal carcinoma. The method, suspension the esophagus and push aside trachea, allows en bloc lymphadenectomy along the left RLN from the below aortic arch to the thoracic inlet.Methods
Between September 2014 and September 2015, a total of 110 consecutive patients with esophageal carcinoma were treated with thoraco-laparoscopic esophagectomy with cervical anastomosis in the semi-prone position. Outcomes between those who received surgery with the novel method and conventional surgery were compared.Results
Fifty patients underwent the novel method and sixty received conventional surgery. The operative field around the left RLN was easier to explore with the novel method. The estimated blood loss was less (23.7±8.2 vs. 34.2±10.3 g, P=0.001), and the number of harvested LNs along the left RLN was greater (6.4±3.2 vs. 4.1±2.8 min, P=0.028) in the novel method group, while the duration of lymphadenectomy along left RLN was longer in the novel method group (28.2±3.9 vs. 20.3±2.8 min, P=0.005). The rate of hoarseness in the novel and conventional groups was 10% and 16.7%, respectively. No significant difference in postoperative morbidity related to the left RLN was noted between the groups.Conclusions
The novel method during semi-prone esophagectomy for esophageal carcinoma is associated with better surgeon ergonomics and operative exposure. 相似文献3.

目的总结甲状腺手术中4种不同解剖标志暴露喉返神经的方法,比较各自的优缺点。方法分析400例甲状腺手术,依据不同解剖标志显露喉返神经,分为四组:甲状腺体下极(A组),甲状腺下动脉(B组),甲状软骨下角(C组),气管食管旁沟(D组)。对比解剖时间、神经损伤(暂时性和永久性)。结果 C组显露时间最短,B组最长。各组的出血量无明显差异。超声刀有助减少手术出血,缩短手术时间。结论根据甲状腺的病变特点和手术者的习惯,采取个体化的解剖路径显露喉返神经,有助于减少损伤。 相似文献

Background: The Harmonic Scalpel (HS) is widely used in thyroidectomy. Determining the safety margin of using the HS near the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is helpful in preventing the injury to this nerve during thyroidectomy. Methods: The parameters of evoked electromyography (EEMG) of vocal muscles before and after using the HS at a power level of 3 were recorded in a rabbit model. Masson staining was used to determine lateral injury caused by incisions using the HS. Results: After the activated tip of the HS made contact with the RLN for ≥1 s or was placed 1 mm from the nerve for 3 or 5 s or 2 mm from the nerve for 5 s, significant changes were observed in the minimal stimulus current intensity threshold, the optimal stimulus current intensity threshold, the onset latency and the wave amplitude of EEMG. After the activated HS tip touched the RLN or was placed 1 mm to the nerve for ≥1 s or 2 mm to the nerve for 5 s, significant changes were found in peak latency. The thickness of injured lateral tissue was <1, 1–2 and >2 mm when using HS for 1, 3 and 5 s, respectively. Conclusion: When used near the RLN at a power level of 3, the activated HS tip should be ≥2 mm from the nerve and the duration of incision should be ≤3 s. 相似文献
