A rare variation: Nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve

Conclusion & Impact:Herein, we presented a non-recurrent laryngeal nerve abnormality, in a case who underwent totaly thyroidectomy and functionally neck dissection for papillary thyroid cancer and the non-reccurrent laryngeal nerve was identified during the nerve exploration.

Abstract

Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy is a major problem in thyroid and parathyroid surgery. Nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve is a well known but relatively rare anatomic variant. Nonrecurrent laryngeal nerve generally arises on the right side of the neck and associated with malformation of the aortic arch and aberrant subclavian artery. It is recommended exploraition and preservation of the nerve to decrease possibility of the nerve palsy. Herein, we presented a non-recurrent laryngeal nerve abnormality, in a case who underwent totaly thyroidectomy and functionally neck dissection for papillary thyroid cancer and the non-reccurrent laryngeal nerve was identified during the nerve exploration.

Özet

Tiroid ve paratiroit cerrahisindeki en önemli problem rekürren laringeal sinir paralizisidir. Non rekürren laringeal sinir (NRLS) iyi bilinen ama nadir görülen bir anatomik varyasyondur. NRLS genellikle boynun sağ tarafından kaynaklanır ve aortik ark ve sağ subklavyen anomalileri ile birliktedir. Sinir yaralanma olasılığını azaltmak için sinirin görülüp korunması önerilmektedir. Burada, papiller tiroid kanseri nedeni ile total tiroidektomi ve fonksiyonel boyun disseksiyonu yaptığımız bir olguda sinir eksplorasyonu esnasında saptadığımız, non-rekürren sinir anomalisi sunulmuştur.
