Tooth was then sectioned with the bur and removed in several pieces.  Remnants of the follicle were removed with a curved hemostat.  The area was irrigated with normal saline solution and closed with 3-0 gut sutures.  Moving to #16 on the upper left, incision was made with a #15 blade.  Envelope flap was raised with the periosteal elevator, and bone was removed on the buccal aspect with straight elevator.  Potts elevator was then used to luxate the tooth from the socket.  Remnants of the follicle were removed with a curved hemostat.  The area was irrigated with normal saline solution and closed with 3-0 gut sutures.  Moving to the lower left #17, incision was made with a #15 blade.  Envelope flap was  raised with the periosteal elevator, and bone was removed on the buccal and distal aspect with high-speed drill with a round bur.  Then the bur was used to section the tooth vertically.  Tooth was removed in several pieces followed by the removal of the remnants of the follicle.  The area was irrigated with normal saline solution and closed with 3-0 gut sutures.  Upon completion of the procedure, the throat pack was removed and the pharynx was suctioned.  An NG tube was then inserted and small amount of gastric contents were suctioned.  Patient was then awakened, extubated, and taken to the PACU in stable condition.

I discussed the indications and the need for procedure with the patient in detail, and he has given consent to proceed.  He has been given prophylactic antibiotics.,PROCEDURE NOTE: , Once satisfactory sedation have been obtained, the patient was placed in the supine position on the operating table.  Genitalia was shaved and then prepped with Betadine scrub and paint solution and were draped sterilely.

A 2-inch segment was isolated, and 1-inch segment was removed.  The free ends were cauterized and were tied with 2-0 silk sutures in such a fashion that the ends double back on themselves.  After securing hemostasis with a cautery, the ends were allowed to drop back into the incision, which was also cauterized.,Attention was now turned to the left side.  The vas was grasped and brought up to the level of the skin.  The skin was infiltrated with 2% Xylocaine and punctured with a sharp hemostat to identify the vas beneath.  The vas was brought out of the incision carefully.  A 2-inch segment was isolated, and 1-inch segment was removed.  The free ends were cauterized and tied with 2-0 silk sutures in such a fashion that the ends double back on themselves.  After securing hemostasis with the cautery, the ends were allowed to drop back into the incision, which was also cauterized.,Bacitracin ointment was applied as well as dry sterile dressing.

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS:,  The patient is a 17-year-old female, who presents to the emergency room with foreign body and airway compromise and was taken to the operating room.  She was intubated and fishbone.,PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: , Significant for diabetes, hypertension, asthma, cholecystectomy, and total hysterectomy and cataract.,ALLERGIES:  ,No known drug allergies.,CURRENT MEDICATIONS: , Prevacid, Humulin, Diprivan, Proventil, Unasyn, and Solu-Medrol.,FAMILY HISTORY: , Noncontributory.,SOCIAL HISTORY: , Negative for illicit drugs, alcohol, and tobacco.,PHYSICAL EXAMINATION:  ,Please see the hospital chart.,LABORATORY DATA: , Please see the hospital chart.,HOSPITAL COURSE: , The patient was taken to the operating room by Dr. X who is covering for ENT and noted that she had airway compromise and a rather large fishbone noted and that was removed.  The patient was intubated and it was felt that she should be observed to see if the airway would improve upon which she could be extubated.  If not she would require tracheostomy.  The patient was treated with IV antibiotics and ventilatory support and at the time of this dictation, she has recently been taken to the operating room where it was felt that the airway sufficient and she was extubated.  She was doing well with good p.o.s, good airway, good voice, and desiring to be discharged home.  So, the patient is being prepared for discharge at this point.  We will have Dr. X evaluate her before she leaves to make sure I do not have any problem with her going home.  Dr. Y feels she could be discharged today and will have her return to see him in a week.
