Parotid Duct Repair with Intubation Tube: Technical Note
نویسندگان
چکیده
The parotid duct can be damaged in traumatic injuries and surgical interventions. Early diagnosis and treatment of a duct injury is of great importance because complications such as sialocele and salivary gland fistula may develop if the duct is not surgically repaired. We think the cuff of an intubation tube is an ideal material in parotid duct repair, because of its technical characteristics, easiness of availability, and low-cost. In this paper, we described the use of the cuff cannula of an intubation tube for the diagnosis and treatment of parotid duct laceration, as a low-cost and easy to access material readily available in every operating room.

Technical note: reversible re-entrant cannulation of the parotid duct in cattle using a new injection anesthesia regimen.
A new method for reversible reentrant cannulation of the parotid duct in cattle by use of an injectable anesthetic regimen is described. Ruminal contents were removed before anesthesia instead of food deprivation. The parotid duct was dilated by means of a long hemostatic forceps: its jaws were encased in a piece of plastic tube, and the tip was extended by a piece of flexible wire. A polyethyl...
متن کاملParotid duct laceration repair in two horses.
Repair of parotid duct lacerations in 2 horses is described using intraluminal silastic tubing as a stent. The duct was lacerated traumatically at the facial vessel notch (incisura vasorum facialium) in the 1st horse, and iatrogenically after removal of an intraluminal sialolith after development of infection within the duct in the 2nd horse. In both cases, a silastic tube was passed retrograde...
متن کاملParotid Duct Repair by Facial Vein Graft versus Gore-Tex, A Sialographic Evaluation
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The most common method for parotid duct anastomosis is suturing. A ductal defect of greater than 1cm may prevent a direct anastomosis. PURPOSE The goal of this study was a sialographic evaluation to compare repairing a parotid duct with facial vein graft versus Gore-Tex tub in 19 dogs. MATERIAL AND METHODS Nineteen dogs were studied in this experimental trial. Extra ora...
متن کاملAcute unilateral parotid glands enlargement following endotracheal general anesthesia: report of two cases.
Acute parotid gland enlargement in association with general anesthesia is rare and has also been called anesthesia mumps. We present two patients who were scheduled for lumbar spine surgery under general anesthesia. Each developed acute unilateral parotid gland enlargement over one side of the face proven by sonography. Case 1: A 52-year-old man was scheduled for his third lumbar spine to first...
