A novel method to reconstruct right recurrent laryngeal nerve by transforming into nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve: The end‐to‐free vagal laryngeal branch end anastomosis
Abstract:The objective of this study is to demonstrate a novel method for the reconstruction of right recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) by transforming into nonrecurrent RLN: the end‐to‐free vagal laryngeal branch end anastomosis. Here we report a case of locally advanced thyroid carcinoma. The patient underwent radical thyroid surgery with inevitably partial RLN resection and immediate right RLN reconstruction at our institution. With the guidance of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IOMN), we completed a novel end‐to‐fre… Show more
