Central Congenital Hypoventilation Syndrome (CCHS) is a rare diagnosis that presents with various forms of autonomic dysfunction. The disease is characterized by reduced chemoreflexes and severe hypoventilation during sleep. Several case reports have noted that patients with CCHS have been found to suffer from hypoglycemic episodes, which frequently present as a seizure. In this report, we will review previous case presentations to alert the physicians about this association with hypoglycemic episodes. Early treatment and monitoring of hypoglycemia will prevent further complications for these populations.
中枢性先天性低通气综合征（CCHS）是一种罕见的诊断疾病，表现为各种形式的自主神经功能障碍。该疾病的特征是化学反射减弱和睡眠期间严重低通气。几例病例报告指出，已发现CCHS患者患有低血糖发作，常表现为癫痫发作。在本报告中，我们将回顾先前的病例报告，以提醒医生注意这种与低血糖发作的关联。对低血糖进行早期治疗和监测将预防这些人群出现进一步的并发症。
