The practicality of a two-incision surgical approach for hypoglossal nerve stimulator implantation.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:Determine the feasibility of a two-incision surgical approach to hypoglossal nerve stimulator implantation based on anatomic considerations. METHODS:Upper airway stimulation (UAS) using the Inspire system uses three implanted devices-the implantable pulse generator (IPG), stimulation lead and sensing chest wall lead. The traditional surgical approach requires three skin incisions located on the submandibular neck, anterosuperior chest wall and inferolateral chest wall. Our surgical team sought to determine the anatomic considerations of combining the two chest wall incisions into one. In order to minimize morbidity and reduce operative time, the chest wall sensing lead was placed posterolateral to the IPG site via the same incision. RESULTS:Using an adult cadaver for anatomical analysis, access to the third and fourth intercostal spaces was made more difficult by the pectoralis major humeral head and upper arm. The intercostal space was narrower, the musculature along the anterior axillary line and anterior chest wall was devoid of the innermost intercostal muscle group found more laterally. Furthermore, there were much thinner external and internal intercostal muscle components as they transitioned to a membranous layer anteriorly in comparison to the inferolateral chest wall. CONCLUSION:Lack of the innermost intercostal muscle and thinning of the external and internal intercostal muscles lateral to the IPG site leaves little barrier between the thoracic musculature and parietal pleural increasing the risk of complications such as pleurisy and pneumothorax. Given the anatomical findings, a two-incision surgical approach for UAS therapy is at higher risk for complications.
