Can you get recurrent laryngeal nerve anesthesia from a SLN block? If so, does it manifest as hoarseness/stridor/adducted cords? Much as we talk about this block, and read about it, I never performed one in residency, since none of our attendings routinely did it for fiberoptic intubations. I'm planning on adding it to my armament for the oral boards, and perhaps for actual practice too, so I'd like to have a better feel for possible complications.
What's been your experience with this block?
