The aim of this study was to provide some specific information about the morphology and topography of the superior laryngeal n., its branches, and its anastomoses with the cervical sympathetic chain, as well as its relations with the thyroid gland. Sixty adult cadavers, i.e. 120 superior laryngeal nn., were dissected and analysed. An anastomotic loop connecting the cervical sympathetic chain and the distal laryngeal n. was present in 111 of the 120 cases. The morphology of this loop made it possible to define 5 different groups. This study supplies information valuable in thyroid surgery.
