[Althesin or CT 1341 as a drug to induce balanced anesthesia with ethrane or fluothane associated with type II NLA in dental, maxillofacial and plastic surgery of the head area].

The Authors have tried Althesin as a medicine for the induction and maintainement of the narcosis in the stomatological, maxillo-facial and extra and intra-oral surgery. They have deduced that CT 1341 does not constitute to the anaesthetics Ethrane and Fluothane because of the anaesthetic-level instability (restlessness of the patient and clonic movements of the limbs during the most painful operations in particular). The Authors, supporters of the balanced anaesthesia, suggest using Althesin in the narcosis induction, the maintaining of which is carried on by the N.L.A. type II medicine and by the Ethrane or Fluothane. The latest ones are to be given in very small, not dangerous quantities. The Authors have so obtained a remarkable oxygenation of the patient, a ready, calm and lucid awakening without any collateral and dangerous consequences.

[Anesthesiological problems in maxillo-facial surgical interventions and reconstructive plastic surgery].

11 years of anaesthesiological experience in maxillofacial and reconstructive plastic surgery (1-4-1966/1-4-1977) are reviewed. The problems connected with these operations are examined. On the basis of localizations, types of operation and surgical requirements, the problems of greatest importance in these branches of surgery may be indicated in the following 5 parameters: 1. Control of the respiratory ways with naso-tracheal intubation under direct view or blind (more than a thousand cases), oro-tracheal intubation: their indications and contraindications as alternatives to pre- intra- and postoperative tracheotomy. 2. Local control of bleeding. 3. Arousal and prevention of possible postnarcotic complications. 4. Prevention and treatment of postoperative oedema. 5. Nutrition of the patient undergoing surgery. In the interests of history, the superseded problem of whether to use local anaesthesia and general anaesthesia in maxillofacial surgery is mentioned and the various problems are discussed exhaustively. Personal anaesthesiological conduct is then specified in relation to the parameters examined and results reported. The importance in certain endo- and extraoral operations of prolonged intubation in the immediate postoperative period (10-15-30 hours) with respect to the indication for postoperative tracheostomy is highlighted. Apart from certain special pathological situations, tracheostomy is rather exceptional and is no longer employed on a routine basis as it was 2-3 years ago.
