OBJECTIVE: To explore the application of immediate recurrent laryngeal nerve reconstruction in the treatment of @entity259 invading the recurrent laryngeal nerve. METHODS: Ten @entity1 with @entity259 invading unilateral recurrent laryngeal nerve underwent radical surgery and immediate recurrent laryngeal nerve reconstruction. The reconstructive surgical approach included recurrent laryngeal nerve decompression surgery, end-to-end @entity254 of the recurrent laryngeal nerve, @entity254 of ansa cervicalis nerve to the recurrent laryngeal nerve, and nerve-muscle pedicle (NMP) technique. Among the ten @entity1 , one underwent nerve decompression, one underwent end-to-end @entity254 of the recurrent laryngeal nerve, seven had @entity254 of ansa cervicalis to recurrent laryngeal nerve, and one case had @entity254 of ansa cervicalis to recurrent laryngeal nerve combined with nerve-muscle pedicle (NMP) technique. The effect of surgery was evaluated by videolaryngoscopy, maximum phonation time (MPT), phonation efficiency index (PEI) and voice assessment. T-test was used in the statistical analysis. RESULTS: All of the 10 @entity1 had no complications including @entity5 recurrence and @entity261 after the surgery. Their hoarseness symptoms were improved, and the @entity1 returned to normal or near-normal voice. Postoperative videolaryngoscopy showed that paralyzed vocal cord returned to normal muscle tone and volume, and the vocal cord vibration and mucosal wave were symmetric and the @entity1 got good glottal closure. The pre- and post-operative maximum phone times of the @entity1 were (4.52    0.89) s and (11.91    1.87) s, respectively (P < 0.01). The pre- and post-operative phonation efficiency indices were (1.37    0.43) s/L and (4.02    1.33) s/L, respectively (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In @entity1 with @entity259 invading unilateral recurrent laryngeal nerve, immediate recurrent laryngeal nerve reconstruction following radical surgery of @entity259 can effectively achieve recovery in phonation function and improve the quality of life of the @entity1 .
