小切口下颌下腺摘除术的初步探讨

Preliminary study on minimal incision for submandibular gland resection

目的:探讨采用颌下区小切口摘除下颌下腺的改良手术方法。方法:在颌下区作30mm长的切口,对6例慢性下颌下腺炎的患者进行了腺体摘除术。术中保留颌外动脉及面前静脉。结果:手术时间40～80min,所有病例无面神经损伤,创口小。结论:改良小切口行下颌下腺摘除术切口短而美观。

Objective： To evaluate an innovative surgical approach for submandibular gland resection with minimal invasive incision. Methods：With cutaneous incision of 30 mm in the submandibular area, six patients with chronic sialadenitis of submandibular gland were treated with this approach. Anterior facial vein and facial artery were maintained without ligation. Results：The operation time is ranged from 40 to 80 minutes. There were no facial nerve injuries. Furthermore, the surgical stigmata was minimized. Conclusion：The modified minimal incision for submandibular gland resection has less wound and better cosmesis.
