Background
Because external laryngeal nerve (ELN) iatrogenic damage is frequent during neck surgery, its precise localization has been highly recommended. This study analyzes the different surgical landmarks previously proposed and the anatomy of the collateral and terminal branches of the ELN.
Methods
The necks of 157 (77 men and 80 women) human adult embalmed cadavers were examined. The ELN origin,...
