Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 04/01/09
Lee MS et al. - The present study aims to describe the course of the recurrent laryngeal nerve using the tracheoesophageal groove (TEG) at the cricothyroid joint as a base line, and the configuration of RLN and inferior thyroid artery for careful dissection in thyroid surgery. The angle of RLN from TEG was measured at the cricothyroid joint. The relative position of RLN to ITA was classified. The location of the contacting point of RLN with ITA was measured and converted as an index. These findings suggest the area for careful dissection near cricothyroid joint, the configuration of RLN for identifying the nerve.
