hey, perhaps they are talking about the "ipsilateral cervical recurrent chain lymph nodes"??

I expect by now you have a picture in your mind of what this particular thyroidectomy involves!

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Dr Sue Levy: I'd go for ipsilateral rather than homolateral, but it's the recurrent (laryngeal) nerve chain or recurrent chain - no need to specify cervical

ipsilateral recurrent chain


Explanation:
Homolateral e ipsilateral son sinónimos, pero en inglés prefieren ipsilateral. “Recurrencial” es un neologismo que suena a barbarismo; los médicos hispanohablantes los adoran, en particular si les suenan a inglés: ahí está ese gerundio “pudiendo” como muestra de “medical spanglish”. Así pues, se refiere a “ipsilateral recurrent chain”. Las referencias aportadas son muy explicativas. Hay que tener paciencia con la jerga médica.

Example sentence(s):
  • A detailed study of the proximal end of the right paratracheal, right tracheo-esophageal, left pre-aortocarotid and left recurrent lymph node chains was undertaken.
  • The recurrent chain was involved in 6 patients: 2, unilateral and 4, bilateral.
