Abstract

Background

Intraoperative neural monitoring (IONM) has increasingly garnered the attention of the surgeons performing thyroid and parathyroid surgery around the world. Current studies suggest a majority of general and head and neck surgeons utilize neural monitoring in their thyroid surgical case load in both the US and Germany.

Purpose

We aim to present an up-to-date review of the application of IONM specifically focusing on its utility in thyroid cancer surgery. Neural monitoring is discussed particularly as it relates to neural prognosis, the issues of staged thyroid surgery for thyroid cancer, and new horizons in the monitoring of the superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) and prevention of neural injury through continuous vagal neural monitoring.

Conclusion

IONM, as it relates to thyroid surgery, has obtained a widespread acceptance as an adjunct to the gold standard of visual nerve identification. The value of IONM in prognosticating neural function and in intraoperative decision making regarding proceeding to bilateral surgery is also well-known. Initial data on recent extensions of IONM in the form of SLN monitoring and continuous vagal nerve monitoring are promising. Continuous vagal nerve monitoring expands the utility of IONM by providing real-time electrophysiological information, allowing surgeons to take a corrective action in impending neural injury.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
