Abstract

Objectives: The best surgical option to treat drooling in neurodisabilities is still under debate. The aim of this study was to describe the technique of subtotal functional sialoadenectomy (SFS) (ie four‐duct ligation (4‐DL) together with bilateral sublingual gland excision) and its long‐term outcomes, in comparison with 4‐DL. Design: Retrospective observational cohort study. Setting: Unit of Pediatric Surgery of Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital (Rome). Participants: Seventy‐five patients surgically treated for drooling between 2002 and 2012, with at least five years of follow‐up, divided into two groups: 4‐DL group (19 patients) underwent four‐duct ligation, and SFS group (56 patients) underwent subtotal functional sialoadenectomy. Main outcome measures: Primary end points were the evaluation of drooling improvement after surgery (parameters: Drooling Severity and Frequency Scale, DSFS; no of bibs/day; no of shirts/day; no of pneumonia/year; use of antidrooling drugs) and the comparison between two different surgical techniques. Results: Median age at surgery was 10 years (1‐35). Long‐term outcomes showed significant improvement in DSFS and in no of shirts/day in both groups. Significantly better results were found in the SFS group than in the 4‐DL group as far as DSFS (P value.045), no of bibs/day (P value.041), no of shirts/day (P value.032) are concerned. Reoperation rate for recurrence was 42% in the 4‐DL group and 0% in the SFS group (P value <.0001). Six patients (8%; 2 in the 4‐DL group and 4 in the SFS group) experienced perioperative complications, while 4 patients (5%; 2 in the 4‐DL group and 2 in the SFS group) recorded long‐term complications, with no difference between groups neither need for surgical treatment. No surgery‐related mortality was recorded. Conclusions: In our experience, subtotal functional sialoadenectomy ensured significantly greater long‐term effects than four‐duct ligation for drooling treatment in neurologically impaired child, with equal complication rate.
