normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa laryngocele is an air-filled, abnormal dilation of the laryngeal saccule that extends upward within the false vocal fold, in communication with the laryngeal lumen. a case of 43-year-old male with bilateral internal laryngoceles, who has been treated as asthma for 4 years, is presented. the patient had dyspnea, cough, and excessive phlegm for a mont...
BACKGROUND The surgical excision of anatomic obstructions such as adenoids, palatine or lingual tonsils are commonly performed in children with sleep disordered breathing (SDB). Imaging studies measuring airway changes post-surgery in the SDB pediatric population are scarce, rarely addresses the nasal cavity, and are based on global measures (e.g. volume) that do not represent the complexity of...
Nocturnal enuresis in children can at times be alleviated or resolved completely with surgery on the upper airway. We present a report of a 7-year-old boy in whom nocturnal enuresis began immediately after reconstructive surgery of the pharynx that caused upper airway obstruction. Enuresis diminished immediately and stopped following an adenoidectomy but resumed secondary to adenoid regrowth af...
5 Perttu Halme Airway surgery for obstructive sleep apnea and partial upper airway obstruction during sleep. Department of Otorhinolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, University of Turku, Finland. Annales Universitatis Turkuensis, Ser. D, Medica – Odontologica, 2011, Turku.
background nasal septal deviation (nsd) can cause upper airway obstruction, which results in hypoxia and therefore, pulmonary vasoconstriction, ventricular hypertrophy and right-sided heart failure. objectives the aim of this study is to determine the mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mpap) of the patients with nsd and the effect of septoplasty on pulmonary arterial pressure. patients and metho...
Snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) both exhibit multilevel upper airway obstruction. The Importance of evaluating the dynamics of the obstructing upper airway cannot be emphasised enough. Accurate assessment and evaluation of the upper airway could potentially lead to improved surgical and non-surgical treatment outcomes. Most of these patients would have undergone an ambulatory sleep s...
Bimaxillary surgery is the traditional treatment of choice for correcting class III malocclusion which is reported to cause an alteration of oropharyngeal structures and upper airway narrowing that might be a predisposing factor for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This study aimed to analyze sleep parameters in class III malocclusion subjects and ascertain the prevalence of snoring or OSA follow...
Upper airway surgical treatments for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) attempt to modify dysfunctional pharyngeal anatomy or by-pass the pharynx. Modifications of the pharynx diminish the bulk of soft tissue structures which abut the air column, place them under tension, others alter their spatial inter-relationships. Surgical procedures are designed to modify the retropalatal pharynx, th...
Unanticipated difficult airway is a challenging problem for anesthesiologists. Oropharyngeal stenosis (OPS) is a rare complication of upper airway surgery which may cause difficult airway. We present a patient whose postsurgical OPS was revealed during the induction of general anesthesia, and necessitated reschedule of surgery and tracheotomy. We also discuss the etiology and risk factors of po...
