Upper airway pathologies have been reported to cause obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
We present two rare cases of OSA, one with laryngocele secondary to partial laryngectomy and the other with epiglottic cyst.
In the management of cases with OSA symptoms, a detailed evaluation of upper airways, including endoscopic and radiological examinations as well as polysomnography, should be done.
据报道,上气道病变可导致阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停(OSA)。
我们呈现两例罕见的阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停病例,一例为部分喉切除术后继发喉膨出,另一例为会厌囊肿。
在处理有阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停症状的病例时,应进行上气道的详细评估,包括内镜检查、影像学检查以及多导睡眠图检查。
