Q

A 30-year old woman underwent elective thyroid surgery and was noted to have hoarseness post-operatively.

T or F: Injury to the external laryngeal nerve during the thyroid surgery may result in a higher pitch of voice.

A

False. It will result in a lower pitched voice.

Snell 9th Ed: “Superior laryngeal nerve divides into the internal and external laryngeal nerves. The internal laryngeal nerve is sensory to the mucous membrane of the piriform fossa and the larynx down as far as the vocal cords. The external laryngeal nerve is motor and is located close to the superior thyroid artery; it supplies the cricothyroid muscle.”

A

True.

Q

Which cranial fossa might be injured in patients presenting with anosmia?

A

Snell 9th Ed: “The olfactory nerve can be tested by applying substances with different odors to each nostril in turn.
