چکیده
macinnis and baig modified altemirs’ original technique for sub‑mental intubation. instead of a lateral entry, they described a central entry just anterior to the sub‑mental crease that does not carry the risk of damage to the lingual nerves, submandibular ducts and sublingual glands. we describe here our experience with this modified sub‑mental intubation that also allows the operating surgeon to provide for a correct midline and optimal esthetics in case of panfacial trauma. key words: macinnis and baig, midline intubation, panfacial trauma, sub‑mental intubation

متن کاملFacial fractures and submental tracheal intubation.
Submental tracheal intubation is a simple, quick and effective alternative to oral and nasal tracheal intubation or tracheostomy in the surgical management of selected patients with craniomaxillofacial injuries. It has a low morbidity and it does not impede the surgical field, allowing for temporary maxillo-mandibular fixation (jaw wiring) intra-operatively, and nasal assessment, manipulation a...
متن کاملnasal speculum for submental intubation
in 1986 altemir, for the first time, described submental intubation for maxillofacial cases. a problem with the technique is that the edges of the tube may damage the anatomic tissues of the mouth floor. to avoid such damages, a modification of this technique using nasal speculum is presented here. moreover, with this technique blood and detached tissues cannot enter into the endotracheal tube ...
متن کاملSubmental Intubation in Patients with Complex Maxillofacial Injuries
Airway management in patients with complex maxillofacial injuries is a challenge to anesthesiologists. Submental intubation is a useful technique that is less invasive than tracheostomy in securing the airways where orotracheal and nasotracheal intubation cannot be performed. This procedure avoids the use of tracheostomy and bypasses its associated morbidities. A flexible and kink-resistant rei...
متن کاملSubmental tracheal intubation in a case of panfacial trauma.
Airway management of panfacial fractures is complicated. Treatment of fractures of such bones presents a certain difficulty as in not only do the fracture fragments have to be aligned but the teeth have to be kept in proper occlusion as well. To achieve a proper pre-traumatic occlusion, the occlusion has to be maintained and checked at all times during the surgery. There are many options for th...
