Our study highlights that using IONM with a standardized method in thyroid surgery, improves the ability to identify the RLN and a reduction in the incidence rate of transient RLN injuries.
It would be useful to undertake randomized prospective studies on a large cohort of patients to determine the most effective therapy for geriatric patients suffering from thyroid carcinoma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
