Abstract
AIMS This study aims to describe our refined technique of submental intubation to avoid the recorded intraoperative complications related to tube passage and pilot balloon rupture. CASE SERIES This is a retrospective case series of 21 patients with complex maxillofacial trauma who underwent submental intubation from January 2019 to January 2023. All the patients underwent to the same procedure with a new technique of pilot balloon protection: the pilot balloon was not deflated because, once the connector was removed, only the tube was curved and passed through the incision extraorally while the cuff remained inflated. The wire of the pilot balloon was passed behind the last tooth so as not to interfere with the maxillary-mandibular fixation, remaining extraorally under the anesthetist's view. DISCUSSION Only 2 patients (9.5%) reported complications related to submental intubation: in particular a patient (4.8%) reported oral floor infection, and in another patient (4.8%) an unesthetic skin scar was observed. No patients reported intraoperative complications related to the procedure. CONCLUSION The technique of pilot balloon protection that we have proposed seems to be effective in reducing the intraoperative complications related to the passage of the pilot balloon, such as rupture, damage or early extubation.

Use of Submental Intubation in the Full-Face Makeover (Orthognathic Surgery, Facial Prosthesis Combined With Rhinoplasty). J Craniofac Surg 2023; 34:723-727. [PMID: 35994744 DOI: 10.1097/scs.0000000000008937] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Submental intubation is an intubation technique used for the management of airways in patients who suffered from complex maxillofacial trauma. Few studies focused on the role of submental intubation during Full-Face Makeover, like orthognathic surgery, facial prothesis, and rhinoplasty. METHODS Authors describe a case series of 5 patients who underwent to Full-Face Makeover with submental intubation to manage the airways. The authors started with the Le Fort I subspinal osteotomy. The maxillary repositioning was guided through a 3D printed intermediate splint in all cases (previously simulated with Dolphin software).Subsequentially, the bilateral sagittal split osteotomy was performed. The mandibular repositioning was guided through a 3D printed final splint. The genioplasty was performed with a horizontal osteotomy after a labial mucosa incision. After the genioplasty, the authors used the incision previously used for the Le Fort I osteotomy to bluntly dissect the tissues in order to insert a custom-made polyether ether ketone zygomatic prosthesis. Lastly, an open rhinoplasty was performed. RESULTS All the surgery lasted a mean less 6 hours. The submental intubation was removed in the operating room, at the end of the surgery. The patients were then discharged from the hospital 2 days after the surgery in all cases. CONCLUSIONS Submental intubation is a valid method for the airway management in maxillofacial trauma and can be extended in case of Full-Face Makeover like orthognathic surgery combined with rhinoplasty. The absence of nasal traumatism during surgery leads to a more accurate rhinoplasty, with a greater satisfaction for the patient.

J Dent Anesth Pain Med 2020; 20:155-160. [PMID: 32617410 PMCID: PMC7321736 DOI: 10.17245/jdapm.2020.20.3.155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2020] [Revised: 06/15/2020] [Accepted: 06/16/2020] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Submental or submandibular intubation has been reported to cause fewer complications than tracheostomy. However, the risk of infection is always inherent because oral wounds are exposed to microbial flora and bacteria in the oral cavity. A novel technique of submandibular intubation was devised to reduce infection and injury to the soft tissues. We would like to report a novel safe technique that can be performed in patients requiring submental or submandibular intubation. This is the first report of submandibular intubation using a sterile disposable camera cable drape. This novel technique of submandibular intubation is safer, more sterile, easier, and less invasive than conventional submandibular intubation.
