Resumen
JIMENEZ-SEGOVIA, Marina et al. Results of injurious laryngeal recurrent in thyroid surgery with the use of the neuroestimulator. Cir. cir. [online]. 2020, vol.88, n.6, pp.703-707. Epub 08-Nov-2021. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.19001531.
Background:
Intermittent intraoperative neuromonitoring of the recurrent laryngeal nerve is the ideal complement in thyroid surgeries, decreasing thyroid injuries.
Objective:
To analyze the prevalence of recurrent laryngeal nerve injuries with the use and without the use of neuromonitoring in thyroid surgery.
Method:
Observational, descriptive and retrospective study, in which a total of 571 patients were included between the years 2012-2018. Of which 180 neuromonitoring was used and 391 were not used.
Results:
Of the 180 patients who underwent total thyroidectomy with the use of neuromonitoring, we had a total of 8 (4.4%) transient paralysis and 2 (1.1%) definitive. Without the use of neuromonitoring we obtain 12 (3%) transient paralysis and 7 (1.85%) definitive.
Conclusions:
We believe that the use of neuromonitoring complementary to surgery should be used routinely to the usual technique. And we also obtain significant results regarding the reduction of recurrent laryngeal nerve injuries with the use of intraoperative neuromonitoring.
