ALEJANDRI-GAMBOA, Vanessa et al. Submental intubation in pediatric maxillofacial surgery: report of 2 cases. Rev. colomb. anestesiol. [online]. 2020, vol.48, n.2, pp.91-95. Epub 30-Abr-2020. ISSN 0120-3347. https://doi.org/10.1097/cj9.0000000000000137.
Submental intubation (SMI) is useful in surgical procedures where nasotracheal intubation is contraindicated and orotracheal intubation is not ideal, making it an alternative to tracheostomy since it is performed in less time, with less morbidity and mortality, minimal postoperatory care, as well as an aesthetically acceptable scar. We present 2 cases of pediatric patients with a successful SMI. In addition, we briefly review current literature regarding pediatric population.
