Snoring is also sick!Sleeping and waking up the throat and the "blocked" surgery "opened" to block the respiratory tract

Recently, the Maogo chief team of the otroom throat -facial and neck surgery of Xi'an Daxing Hospital passed surgery to "open" the blocked respiratory tract for "opening" Mr. Hu who suffered from "obstructive sleep apnea (moderate)". The symptoms of snoring are significantly reduced, and the quality of sleeping at night has improved.

It turned out that a year ago, Mr. Hu began to snore when he was sleeping, and his voice was loud. He was often awakened by poor breathing at night, which seriously affected the quality of sleep. In the local hospital, the doctor suspected that his hypertension was also caused by poor sleep and breathing. Although the corresponding treatment is given, the effect is not obvious. In order to solve the disease, Mr. Hu tossed multiple hospitals and was diagnosed with "blocking low ventilation syndrome (moderate)".

Because Mr. Hu's jaw is naturally deformed, soft palate and tongue are hypertrophy, the tonsils are large, and his body is obese, the pharyngeal fat accumulates. After lying down, these factors are oppressed, blocking the upper respiratory tract, affecting the breathing, causing cause Snoring and holding. At the same time, because of poor breathing and insufficient oxygen supply, Mr. Hu suffers from "moderate hypoxemia". This will not only exacerbate the development of his hypertension. At present, the highest has reached 170/120mmHg, far exceeding the normal average of men of the same age (about 120/80mmHg).

In severe cases, it can also cause death in sleep, so the disease is also called "snoring will die suddenly". In this regard, the hospital proposes two treatment plans: long -term ventilator or surgical treatment.

In order to solve the fundamental problem, Mr. Hu, 38, found the team of the head of the otrohophnell, nasal throat -facial neck of Xi'an Daxing Hospital.

Considering that Mr. Hu's cause is complicated, the parts that require surgery are special, nerve, muscles, and tissues are dense, and symptoms such as hypoxia are severe. In order to minimize the risk of surgery, the Mago team is fully prepared for surgery.

On September 2nd, the operation was performed as scheduled, mainly divided into four steps: 1. Remove bilateral hypertrophy of tonsils, and "freeze" more intake space. 2. Remove part of the thick soft palate and surrounding tissue, and reshape the shape of the palate pharyngeal. 3. The roots of the plasma tongue are discharged, the roots of the tongue are reduced, and the "channel" of the pharynx cavity is further expanded. 4. Migrate before the bone interception of the osteotomy, the lower jaw that is deformed after correction, and suspended the migrant bone forward, so that the lower pharynx space continues to expand. In this way, the main factor of blocking the respiratory tract is completely solved. The "ventilation" is large and the breathing is smooth.

After the surgery, Mr. Hu returned well, the symptoms of snoring were significantly reduced, and he was no longer awakened. The quality of sleep was improved a lot. He has now recovered.

Experts remind: Don't think that snoring is a normal phenomenon. In fact, long -term snoring is a signal of a disease. The most common clinical manifestations of sleep respiratory suspension syndrome is that night sleep snoring with breathing suspension. The disease can cause recurrent seizures of hypoxia and hyperlar carbonate at night, which can lead to complications such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes and cerebrovascular disease, and even sudden dying at night. Therefore, when severe snoring and poor breathing at night, you need to be vigilant, please seek medical treatment in time. (Xi'an Daxing Hospital)
