AIMS
The aim of the present study was to evaluate pharyngeal airway in cleft individuals and normally growing individuals using cone beam computed tomography.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Cone beam computed tomography scans of 22 individuals were obtained from the Department of Orthodontics and divided in two groups. Group 1 includes 11 cases with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate (mean age, 12 years) and group 2 includes 11 noncleft cases (mean age, 14 years). The oropharyngeal, nasopharyngeal, and oronasal pharyngeal airway was evaluated between the two groups.
RESULTS
In the cleft group, the volume of the nasopharyngeal airway was found to be 3.66 cm(3); of the oropharyngeal airway, 9.28 cm(3); and of the oronasal pharyngeal airway, 12.67 cm(3). The volume of the nasopharyngeal airway was found to be significantly reduced in the cleft palate group when compared with the noncleft group.
CONCLUSION
The nasopharyngeal airway was found to be significantly smaller among the children with cleft palate than among those in the control group.
目的
本研究旨在使用锥形束计算机断层扫描评估腭裂个体和正常生长个体的咽部气道。
材料与方法
从正畸科获取22名个体的锥形束计算机断层扫描图像，并分为两组。第1组包括11例完全性单侧唇腭裂患者（平均年龄12岁），第2组包括11例非腭裂患者（平均年龄14岁）。对两组之间的口咽、鼻咽和口鼻咽气道进行评估。
结果
在腭裂组中，发现鼻咽气道体积为3.66立方厘米；口咽气道体积为9.28立方厘米；口鼻咽气道体积为12.67立方厘米。与非腭裂组相比，腭裂组的鼻咽气道体积明显减小。
结论
发现腭裂儿童的鼻咽气道明显小于对照组儿童。
