To summarize the cooperative measures on circulation restore during the operation of microvascular submandibular gland transfer. Fifty-six cases of microvascular submandibular gland transfer were performed in Peking University School & Hospital of Stomatology from January 2005 to March 2009. The related data was collected retrospectively and the cooperative measures on circulation restore during the operation were summarized. The circulation restore of transferred glands were satisfied in all 56 cases when the submandibular gland transfer operation finished. Thrombosis happened in 7 cases within the postoperative 48 hours and the secondary emergency operations were done. At last 6 glands were salvaged and the final successful rate was 98.21%. Successful circulation restore was one of the key points on microvascular submandibular gland transfer. The most important mission of the nursing during the operation was the prevention of vascular crisis. The main measures include persistent wet packing using narceine, fomentation using warm saline and special nursing on postoperative complications. Our experience proves that it is beneficial to the success of operation.
