Botulinum toxin versus submandibular duct relocation for severe drooling

Abstract: AIM Botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNT-A) has been described as an effective intervention for drooling and is being increasingly adopted. However, its effectiveness compared with established treatments is still unknown. We undertook a within-participants observational study to examine this.METHOD An historic cohort was formed of 19 children and young adults (10 males, nine females) with severe drooling who underwent BoNT-A injections followed by surgical re-routing of the submandibular duct at least 6 months la… Show more

“…In addition to medical therapy, treatment of sialorrhoea can be accomplished with botulinum toxin (Botox Õ or Dysport Õ ) type A [19,76,[80][81][82][83] or type B [84][85][86] injections into the submandibular [19,76,[80][81][82][83][84][85][86] or parotid glands [19,76,81,82,84,85]. In Australia, Botulinum toxin type A is available, whereas Botulinum toxin type B is not.…”

“…Reported side-effects of botulinum toxin injections have been reported which include pain, swelling and bleeding [64]. Additionally, dysphagia, altered speech and thickened saliva have been found [14,79,83]. Given that dysphagia is a key reason for prolonged tracheostomy in adults with severe ABI, it is important that decisions are made in a multidisciplinary context to assess the appropriateness of botulinum injections for the population group.…”
