We present the case of a middle-aged man whose obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) was caused by a retropharyngeal lipoma, with complete resolution after transoral excision. Lipomas causing OSA are rare, and this represents the seventh reported case in the literature.
我们报告一例中年男性,其阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停(OSA)由咽后脂肪瘤引起,经口切除后完全缓解。引起OSA的脂肪瘤很少见,这是文献报道的第七例。
