Abstract:
Surgical repair and reconstruction of the injured recurrent laryngeal nerve are discussed. Tips to avoid inadvertent nerve injury are noted, as are aspects of non-recurring recurrent laryngeal nerves. The controversy regarding recurrent laryngeal nerve anastomosis is updated, and a protocol for management of the injured recurrent laryngeal nerve is presented.
