Allograft Nerve Repair of a Transected Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve With Voice and Singing Recovery

Recurrent laryngeal nerve injuries can occur during thyroid and neck procedures or similar interventions. Immediate nerve repair when possible is preferred to both faciliate the repair and allow timely recovery of the muscle. Here, we report a case of transected left recurrent laryngeal nerve repaired by allograft nerve interposition with excellent return of speaking and singing voice with vocal cord function. Laryngoscope, 135:1086-1089, 2025.

Abstract

Recurrent laryngeal nerve injuries can occur during thyroid and neck procedures or similar interventions. Immediate nerve repair when possible is preferred to both faciliate the repair and allow timely recovery of the muscle. Here, we report a case of transected left recurrent laryngeal nerve repaired by allograft nerve interposition with excellent return of speaking and singing voice with vocal cord function. Laryngoscope, 135:1086-1089, 2025.
