Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Otolaryngology
  • Respiratory Medicine

Background:

  • Suspension microlaryngoscopy requires specialized ventilation techniques for optimal surgical access.
  • Traditional intubation methods can compromise surgical field visualization and airway control.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of high-frequency subglottic jet ventilation (HF-SJ V) in adult microlaryngoscopy.
  • To compare HF-SJ V with traditional intubation and supraglottic jet ventilation.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective analysis of 142 adult patients undergoing suspension microlaryngoscopy with HF-SJ V.
  • Data collected on insertion success, complications, and patient outcomes.
  • Review of surgical exposure, ventilation parameters (O2, CO2), and applicability to limited airways.

Main Results:

  • HF-SJ V demonstrated a low complication rate, with no serious adverse events.
  • Successful catheter insertion in all cases; only two required conversion to supraglottic ventilation.
  • Effective for diverse pathologies including vocal fold paralysis and papilloma.

Conclusions:

  • HF-SJ V is a safe and reliable ventilation technique for suspension microlaryngoscopy in adults.
  • It offers comparable or superior outcomes regarding surgical exposure and ventilation compared to other methods.
  • Applicable across a broad spectrum of laryngeal pathologies and airway challenges.
