    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Surgical Anatomy

    Background:

    • Posterior neck triangle surgery carries risks.
    • Understanding spinal accessory nerve vulnerability is crucial.

    Observation:

    • 17 patients were evaluated post-neck surgery.
    • Electromyography was used in 11 patients.

    Findings:

    • 12 patients showed 11th cranial nerve (spinal accessory nerve) paresis.
    • Partial nerve injuries and delayed symptoms were common.
    • Physiotherapy aided functional recovery, though often incomplete.

    Implications:

    • The spinal accessory nerve is susceptible to injury during neck dissections.
    • Careful surgical technique is essential to minimize nerve damage.
    • Further research into preventing and managing spinal accessory nerve injuries is warranted.
