## Abstract A quantitative study by light and electron microscopy of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) of the rat has been performed. The diameter of the myelinated fibers displayed a bimodal pattern, with a pronounced peak at 2β3 ΞΌm, and with a second peak at 4.5β7 ΞΌm. The number of small fibers
