Recurrent laryngeal nerve

[@stanleyibeneme4790]

I think your absolutely amazing Mr Webster..... and your videos have been a life saver more than you can imagine. Keep up the good work ❤️

[@luxlucis9201]

Your 15min videos do more for me than a whole day of lectures by my teachers.. You are the absolute best 😍 thank you!

[@thomashaigh8626]

Passed my MRCS DOHNS the other month Sam. Can I please thank you for your anatomy content - they were invaluable in my preparation. Keep up the good work! More Head + Neck content please!

Brilliant work with excellent models and explanations! I would just like to add that recurrent laryngeal nerve's function (clinically) is to ABduct vocal cords (not involved with the tensor muscle, cricothyroid, in charge of ADduction). So a unilateral injury does cause hoarseness, but bilateral injury (or nerve blockade) can cause stridor or airway obstruction, making it even difficult to intubate a patient since vocal cords could potentially be closed. Such complication would require an immediate surgical airway.

I'm doing a module on the regional anatomy of the thorax and your videos were SUPER useful to me

I have been without a voice for the past 3 months because of lung cancer… very interesting explanation

[@amirrezashamszadeh5700]

thank you so much .you are the best teacher and special thanks for noted in surgery .

[@mehreenakmal9950]

Dr. Sam you are such a lifesaver👍💯....you made anatomy interesting to me💕

[@priyankarane6554]

I was searching for this particular topic 😂 What a timing 😊 Thank u soooooo much 💖

[@alexandrashields2600]

"The most logical reason for this design is that it is due to developmental constraints. Embryologist Professor Erich Blechschmidt wrote that the recurrent laryngeal nerve’s seemingly poor design in adults is due to the “necessary consequences of developmental dynamics and are not to be interpreted … as historical carryovers” from evolution. Human-designed devices, such as radios and computers, do not need to function until their assembly is complete. By contrast, living organisms must function to a high degree in order to thrive during every developmental stage...". @t. put this in references please.

[@redx11x]

Quite amazing really. No one talks about this.

[@hakaromer]

Could you please add more detail i want to understand?

[@kavian9620]

I mean Erich Blechschmidt died in 1992, so his opinion is not very recent, and more importantly is not the consensus, so why should he put this old fringe opinion in the description?

[@ronkingston]

hi Sam just wondering do you feel trauma to a rib could cause laryngeal nerve damage?

[@ruggerogabbrielli6831]

Very well done and very interesting. Does this nerve innervate ONLY the larynx?

[@KAST96]

Is the vagus nerve next then? In the "fun with nerves" series?

[@dianasmyres1579]

Brilliant and adorable❤️❤️

[@wallflower257]

Sir it's very confusing about the relations of vertebrae with the organs and position of parts related with the specific vertebrae. Can you please make a video about what parts are related to each specific vertebrae?

[@bubbles8016]

thankyou sirrrr WE LOVE YOU !!!!

[@OfficialAlbertS]

It is the phrenic nerve connected with the pancreas?

[@SamWebster]

No. The vagus nerve carries parasympathetic innervation to abdominal organs.

[@Margics]

Sam I think I got injured in a nerve that passes in the right side of waistline which nerve I don’t know...Im sure you know...I got symptoms of it 😔 great vids thanks 🙏 see you soon.

[@user-ik4br3nk2w]

this proves evolution over design

[@kamelkani4051]

No its doesn't sorry It's so stupid to think something this complex like the human body or any other body in Nature is not design If you can't see design am afraid you going to hell cause it's an insult to your mind and it's considered as a criminal act against God that you don't use your God given mind and intellect Quran 7:179 Indeed, We have destined many jinn and humans for Hell. They have hearts they do not understand with, eyes they do not see with, and ears they do not hear with. They are like cattle. In fact, they are even less guided! Such ˹people˺ are ˹entirely˺ heedless.

[@dhairyarathore1382]

Sir, in the condition of Dextrocardia, Is the left recurrent laryngeal nerve situated on the right side and right to the left???

[@SamWebster]

I think I see what you mean, and the short answer is, "yes".

[@dhairyarathore1382]
