- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 37-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue and cervical lymphadenopathy. The patient underwent wide local excision and supraomohyoid neck dissection surgery. It offers information on anesthesia bubbles which is defined as the presence of large visible collection of gas bubbles in exposed venous channels during neck surgeries and attributes its expanded size to diffusion of dissolved nitrous oxide in blood.
