Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The feasibility and effectiveness of Reversed Tracking Method for the identification and protection of extralaryngeal nerve branches in thyroid surgery were analyzed. Evidence-based medical evidence was used to evaluate the importance of EBSLN recognition and protection in thyroid surgery.

Inclusion criteria: 1. thyroid papillary cancer patients 2. thyroid adenoma patients 3. tumor diameter less than 4cm 4. patients who require only unilateral thyroid surgery as required by the guidelines Exclusion criteria: 1. The upper pole tumor invades the anterior dorsum and may accumulate the area of the superior laryngeal nerve; 2. Patients who have previously performed head and neck surgery; 3. Preoperative laryngoscopy and sound assessment abnormalities or previous vocal cord surgery history; 4. If there is a language or hearing impairment, the follow-up assessment cannot be completed; 5. The assessment failure of nerve function due to the technical deficiency of the IONM equipment Elimination criteria: 1. Patients with recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy after surgery affect the evaluation of the laryngeal nerve. 2. The patient is asked to withdraw from the follow-up assessment midway.
