PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS ARTERIA LUSORIA IN THYROID SURGERY
Abstract
The aberrant right subclavian artery is an aortic arch anomaly known as arteria lusoria. It has a frequent association with nonrecurrent inferior laryngeal nerve. We present a case of pre-operative diagnosis of the arteria lusoria when planning surgical treatment for a benign disease of the thyroid gland. During the intraoperative revision, a nonrecurrent inferior laryngeal nerve was detected on the right and a typically recurrent laryngeal nerve was located on the left. In this clinical situation, the fluoroscopy of the esophagus allowed us to identify the vascular anomaly, which is a prognostic sign of the irreversible nonrecurrent inferior laryngeal nerve. We consider it necessary to perform fluoroscopy of the esophagus in patients with suspected compression of the neck organs with an enlarged thyroid gland.
