Pharyngeal Complications Following Two-Jaw Surgery.
Cureus
December 2024
Section of Anesthesiology, Department of Diagnostics and General Care, Fukuoka Dental College, Fukuoka, JPN.
Objective: Two-jaw surgery corrects jaw deformities by adjusting occlusion and reshaping the jaw. This technique carries a high risk of pharyngolaryngeal injury due to frequent head and neck movements during intraoperative maneuvers and prolonged intubation, although the details remain unclear. This study explored the frequency and causes of postoperative pharyngeal complications following maxillary translocation.

Cervical plexus block (CPB), like other types of regional anesthesia, represents an alternative anesthetic technique in those cases where the performance of general anesthesia (GA) carries an increased risk both for the patient and the outcome of the operative treatment. It has traditionally been used for years in carotid surgery as an alternative to GA, especially due to the possibility of superior monitoring - the awake patient. However, its effectiveness has been proven in other types of neck surgery, primarily in thyroid surgery, neck dissections, tracheostomy, central venous catheter insertion, clavicle surgery, etc.

BACKGROUND Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU) is a common microorganism that has been associated with a variety of obstetric and neonatal complications, such as infertility, stillbirth, histologic chorioamnionitis, neonatal sepsis, respiratory infections, and central nervous system infections. However, it is rare for it to cause severe neonatal asphyxia. This rarity is the focus of our case report, which aims to highlight the potential severity of UU infections in newborns.

In injured and diseased tissues, changes in molecular and cellular compositions, as well as tissue architecture, lead to alterations in both physiological and physical characteristics. Notably, the electrical properties of tissues, which can be characterized as bioelectrical impedance (bioimpedance), are closely linked to the health and pathological conditions of the tissues. This highlights the significant role of quantitatively characterizing these electrical properties in improving the accuracy and speed of diagnosis and prognosis.

Airway pathology is a complex and incompletely mastered field. Historically, its management was rudimentary, with tracheostomies performed in ancient Egypt, and progress remained stagnant for millennia. Significant advances began in the late 19 century, followed by notable surgical and anesthetic progress in the mid-20 century.
