The most common cause of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) dysfunction is iatrogenic injury, and recognition and management of RLN injury after surgery should be a part of the head and neck surgeon's armamentarium. This chapter discusses the examination and workup of RLN injury, management of vocal fold paresis/paralysis, and interventions that can be offered to the patient in the postoperative setting.
