Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Chronic sialadenitis can necessitate submandibular gland excision.
  • Traditional transcervical excision leaves a neck scar and risks facial nerve injury.
  • Minimally invasive surgical techniques are sought to improve patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of an intraoral approach for submandibular gland excision.
  • To assess the feasibility of this technique in patients with chronic sialadenitis, impacted stones, or benign tumors.
  • To compare intraoral excision outcomes with transcervical approaches.

Main Methods:

  • A prospective study of 13 patients with chronic sialadenitis from November 2016 to April 2018.
  • Submandibular gland dissection and removal via an intraoral incision, using the surgical triangle as a landmark.
  • Preservation of the sublingual gland during the procedure.

Main Results:

  • Successful submandibular gland removal via the intraoral approach in 10 out of 13 patients.
  • Two patients required conversion to a transcervical excision.
  • No reported injuries to the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve in the intraoral group.

Conclusions:

  • Intraoral submandibular gland excision is a safe and effective method for carefully selected patients.
  • This approach avoids the cosmetic concerns of a transcervical scar.
  • It offers a reduced risk of injury to the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve compared to the transcervical route.
