Abstract

Objective: The upper airway anatomy of patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) was measured using electronic nasopharyngeal lens, used to guide the precise resection of the soft palate range during the modified sarsaovatopharynthoplasty and improve the surgical efficacy. Methods: From February to October 2020, The length of the palate and the distance of Passvant's ridgy on the posterior pharyngeal wall of 38 patients with type II OSAHS,in a conscious state,were measured by electronic nasopharyngoscope via nose before operation,the improved operating methods witch the free edge of the soft palate and the uvula were preserved completely were adopted,and the longer soft palate tissue was removed.The average length of the excised soft palate was 10.3±3.7(mm). The length of the palate and the distance of Passvant's ridgy were reviewed during 6-12 months postoperative follow-up, and postoperative complications and clinical efficacy were observed. Results: According to the preoperative measurement results by electronic nasopharyngoscope, the postoperative clinical symptoms with the patients underwent modified uvulopalatopharyngoplasty after excision of the longer soft palate tissue were significantly improved without common postoperative complications. PSG was significantly improved before and after operation, and the curative effect was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Using electronic nasopharyngoscope to measure the upper airway anatomical structure of the patients with type II OSAHS for surgical treatment could provide an accurate range of soft palate to be resected, effectively prevent postoperative complications and improve surgical efficacy.
