The non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve (NRILN) is a nerve anomaly that is associated with the developmentally aberrant subclavian artery. Thus, it is possible to predict NRILN by preoperative diagnosis of an aberrant subclavian artery. Preoperative recognition of the NRILN should be advantageous in the prevention of intraoperative nerve damage. The purpose of this study was to assess the possibility of diagnosis of an aberrant subclavian artery by computed tomography (CT) of the neck, which is often performed before thyroid surgery.
