Sihler staining for laryngeal nerve mapping. A representative Sihler stained sample from a mouse in the bilateral SLN transection group demonstrates that the murine laryngeal framework and laryngeal nerve branching pattern are remarkably similar to humans. Red X indicates the location of SLN transection. Black arrows show the origin of nerve branches from the RLN trunk bilaterally.
