Abstract

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs in patients with narrowing of the pharyngeal airway due to a variety of pathologic conditions. We documented obstructive and mixed sleep apnea in a patient with narrowing of the airway caused by macroglossia associated with amyloidosis. Tracheostomy relieved the symptoms of OSA (hypersomnolence, confusion upon awakening, and hyperkinesis during sleep) despite the emergence of striking central sleep apnea following the procedure.

摘要

阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停（OSA）发生于因多种病理状况导致咽气道狭窄的患者中。我们记录了一名因与淀粉样变性相关的巨舌症导致气道狭窄的患者出现阻塞性和混合性睡眠呼吸暂停。尽管气管切开术后出现了明显的中枢性睡眠呼吸暂停，但该手术缓解了OSA的症状（嗜睡、觉醒时意识模糊和睡眠期间运动亢进）。
