Non-Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve

Abstract: During the performance of 2101 thyroid operations, 3496 recurrent laryngeal nerves were identified and exposed. Of the 1776 visualized nerves on the right side, 6 were found to be non‐recurrent. A brief survey of the literature relevant to this anatomical abnormality is included, and its importance in the performance of thyroid surgery is emphasized.

“…Bislang galt das Diktum, dass zwischen der ösophagotrachealen und der karotidojugulären Achse keine querverlaufenden Strukturen außer den Kocher-Venen durchtrennt werden dürfen, bevor der NLIR nicht langstreckig dargestellt wurde [62]. Dies ist insofern zu korrigieren, als die Darstellung eines NLIR zu fordern ist, der eine der gesamtkörperlichen Konstitution des Patienten in etwa proportionale Kaliberstär-ke aufweist; andernfalls ist ein nichtrekurrierender Ast zu vermuten [54].…”

“…Since then many surgeons have reported it during thyroidectomies [6], It is generally considered to be a very rare anomaly and it invariably occurs on the right side. The reported incidence varies from 0.3 to 4% [7][8][9], It is exceptional for the left inferior laryngeal nerve to be non recurrent; there have been 2 case reports [4], The origin of a non-recurrent nerve has always been cervical: at the level of the upper pole of the thyroid, the cricopharyngeal sphincter or the inferior thyroid artery. In both our cases, the nerve arose at the level of the upper pole of the thyroid gland.…”
