Objectives/HypothesisTo examine the risk and prevalence of accidental intraoperative injury reported during head and neck surgeries and the associated outcomes.Study DesignRetrospective cross‐sectional analysis.MethodsAn analysis utilizing the Nationwide Readmissions Database, 2010 to 2014. Adult patients with a reported accidental intraoperative injury were compared to controls without such injuries.ResultsA total of 173 cases and 105,659 controls were included. Most cases were reported in surgeries of the mouth/tonsils (29.4%) and maxillofacial bones/mandible (22.5%). The remaining cases were reported in surgeries of the pharynx/larynx (17.5%), nose/paranasal sinuses (15.4%), salivary glands and ducts (6.2%), thyroid/parathyroid (5.2%), and ear (3.8%). The multivariate logistic regression model demonstrated that surgeries of the pharynx/larynx were associated with the highest risk of injuries compared to other site surgeries (odds ratio [OR]: 2.51, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.49, 4.25,P< .001]. Concomitant neck dissection was also independently associated with the risk of injury (OR: 4.07, 95% CI: 2.05, 8.09,P< .001]. Compared to controls, cases were not associated with an increased risk of mortality (P= .63) or readmission (P= .29); however, those cases had a significantly longer hospital stay on average by 3.64 ± 0.95 days/case (P< .001) and a higher cost of treatment on average by $13,478 ± 119.42/case (P< .001).ConclusionsThis study reports on the prevalence and outcomes of accidental intraoperative injuries reported in head and neck surgeries. The prevalence is relatively low, and the annual trend appears stable; however, it is associated with a significant burden on the health system.Level of EvidenceNALaryngoscope, 130:918–924, 2020
