Background
The purpose of this work was to compare methods of detecting nonrecurrent laryngeal nerves (NRLNs).
Methods
Specificity and sensitivity were compared in three NRLN detection methods: CT, electromyography (EMG), and A‐B point comparison.
Results
A total of 73 intraoperative pictures and 36 CT details of NRLNs are presented. Incidence of NRLN was 0.39%. Type I NRLN accounted for 50.7%,...
Background
The purpose of this study was to evaluate electromyography (EMG) amplitude and latency changes during tube dislocation in monitored thyroid surgery, which may be observed without recurrent laryngeal nerve injury.
Methods
Duroc–Landrace piglets were intubated with the TriVantage EMG tube. We measured EMG changes during both upward and downward tube dislocation (10–20 mm) and rotation...
