Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Axoguard nerve protectors have a role in preventing shoulder disability and pain following spinal accessory nerve sparing neck dissections.

Conditions

  • Spinal Accessory Nerve Injury
  • Cervical Lymphadenopathy

Interventions

DEVICE

AxoGuard Nerve Cuff

A porcine collagen implant will be used to make a protective sheath around the participant's exposed spinal accessory nerve during surgery. This will be performed by physically wrapping the exposed nerve with the implant and suturing the ends together. The goal is to protect nerve from adhesions and compression in the absence of normal protective lymphatic soft tissue.
