Modified sling snoreplasty: double triangle shaped suture uvulopalatopexy

Year 2010, Volume: 20 Issue: 1, 51 - 55, 10.01.2010

Abstract

Following the uvulopalatopharyngoplasty and laser assisted uvulopalatoplasty as treatments for mild obstructive sleep apnea syndrome OSAS originating from the soft palate, palatal stiffening operations began to be described as causing less morbidity, interfering less with velopharyngeal and mucosal functions, and being applicable in outpatient settings. We present modified uvulopalatopexy procedure which can be used in mild OSAS patients is a simple, minimally invasive and effective new method. In this article, we present a modified form of sling snoreplasty method and two cases in whom this method was used.

Abstract

Orta şiddetli obstrüktif uyku apne sendromu OUAS ’nun tedavisinde, yumuşak damağa yönelik uvulopalatofarengoplasti ve lazer yardımlı uvulopala- toplasti ameliyatlarından sonra, daha az morbiditesi olan ve ayaktan tedavi edilen hastalara da uygulana- bilen, velofarengeal ve mukozal fonksiyonları daha az etkileyen palatal germe ameliyatları tanımlanmış- tır. Orta şiddetli OUAS hastalarına uygulanabilecek yeni bir yöntem olarak modifiye sütür uvulopalato- peksi işlemi basit, minimal invaziv ve etkilidir. Bu makalede daha önce literatürde tanımlanmış olan sling snoreplasty yönteminin modifiye edilmiş formu iki olgu eşliğinde sunuldu
