Abstract

Purpose

Seroma/sialocele and haematoma formations following parotidectomy are common complications. Fibrin-sealant tissue glue (FSTG) applied to the surgical bed prior to closure has been used widely to reduce such complications at other surgical sites. We sought to evaluate a potential role in parotidectomy, examining outcomes before and after the use of FSTG was introduced in our department.

Methods

Outcomes were studied retrospectively for 1 year prior to the introduction of FSTG (group A, n = 31), and prospectively for 1 year subsequently (group B, n = 29). Primary outcome measures were seroma/sialocele and haematoma rates. Secondary outcome measures of interest included the use of a surgical drain and the duration of hospital stay. Chi-squared statistics and Mann–Whitney U tests were used to compare the outcomes between groups as appropriate.

Results

Seroma/sialocele rates were significantly lower in group B than in group A (n = 2 [6.9%] versus n = 8 [25.8%], p = 0.01) (Fig. 1), with an absolute risk reduction of 18.9%, a relative risk reduction of 26.7%, and a number needed to treat of 5.3. Haematoma rates were similar between groups (n = 0 [0%] versus n = 1 [3.2%], p = 0.36) (Fig. 2). In group A, a surgical drain was used in 24 cases (77.4%), while no cases in group B were drained.

Conclusion

The use of FSTG appears to significantly reduce the risk of post-parotidectomy seroma/sialocele formation and facilitates safe, drain-free daycase surgery. We hope this report will prompt other departments to consider using this technique and that our findings will help foster further appraisal in larger, prospective studies going forward.
