Abstract AR

دراسة الشخير عند البالغين أثناء النوم و تأثيره على انسداد التنفس عند البالغين في دراستنا الحالية نركز على حالات توقف التنفس أثناء النوم و تأثير عملية استئصال اللوزتين و جزء من اللهاة و جزء من البلعوم مع مصاحبتها لعمليات جراحية أخرى في الأنف أحياناً.

و أظهرت النتائج بشفاء أغلب المرضى من حالاتهم المرضية على الرغم من بقاء قسم من الحالات تعاني من حالات خفيفة من الشخير.

Abstract EN

Habitual, loud snoring is common in the adult population, and may be the only symptom of the more serious Obstructive Sleep Apnoea syndrome.

We report here our results of uvulo palatopharyngoplasty (UPPP), with or without nasal surgery, for snoring.

Quantitative grading of the severity of the snoring shows that all patients were cured of symptomatic snoring, but that snoring was not altogether abolished in all patients.
