OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects of propofol with traditional thiopental anesthesia for oral-maxillofacial surgery in terms of vital sign changes and awakening time.METHODS: Thirty cases undergoing maxillectomy were randomly divided into two groups(propofol and thiopental) in order to compare vital sign changes before and after administration of anesthetics (propofol and thiopental). RESULTS: The pharmacological circulatory disturbance of propofol was less important than thiopental and the incidence of apnea was significantly higher than thiopental (P<0.01).The awakening time of propofol was significantly shorter than thiopental (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: With rapid awakening time of propofol was significantly a safe anesthetic agent in oral-maxillofacial surgery,especially for long time operation.

The surgery-first approach (SFA) is gaining popularity in orthognathic surgery because it makes treatment duration shorter and more satisfying for patients. However, its effectiveness in complex cases isn't fully understood. Here, we describe a rare case where SFA was used to fix problems caused by missing posterior teeth and a deep bite, which made traditional pre-surgery orthodontic treatment impractical.
