低温等离子射频消融术在鼻咽喉疾病中的应用

目的探讨低温等离子射频消融术在鼻咽喉疾病中应用的治疗效果。方法低温等离子下鼻甲打孔射频消融术治疗鼻塞814例;软腭切开打孔射频消融术或同时切除扁桃体治疗成人阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征(obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome,OSAHS)67例;低温等离子扁桃体、腺样体切除或射频消融术治疗儿童OSAHS 68例。结果鼻塞患者一次消融后视觉模拟评分法(visual analogue scale,VAS)评分0～1分者720例(88.45%);二次消融后VAS评分0～1分者35例(4.30%),VAS评分5分以上者59例(7.25%)。67例成人OSAHS治愈3例(4.5%),显效38例(56.7%),有效19例(28%),无效7例(10.4%);68例儿童OSAHS治愈58例(85.29%),鼾声、憋气和张口呼吸等症状消失,咽部阻塞感消除;10例症状明显减轻(14.71%)。结论低温等离子射频消融术在鼻咽喉部疾病中应用广泛、效果显著、操作简便、微创、安全性高且患者痛苦小:尤其是治疗儿童OSAHS,疗效更为显著。

Application of coblation in the treatment of nose and throat diseases

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy of coblation in upper airway obstruction patients. METHODS Coblation Channeling was used in 814 obstructed nasal airway patients.Soft palate coblation with or without tonsil treatment was applied in 67 adult OSAHS patients.Coblation tonsillectomy or tonsillotomy with adenoidectomy was performed in 68 pediatric OSAHS patients.RESULTS For obstructed nasal airway patients,VAS scores of 720 (88.45 %) patients were 0 to 1 after one time treatment.Thirty-five (4.3 %) patients had second treatment,and then VAS scores dropped to 0 to 1.VAS scores of 59 (7.25 %) patients kept more than 5.For adult OSAHS patients,3 (4.5 %) patients were cured,38 (56.7 %) patients were improved, 19 (28 %) patients were effective and 7 patients were not improved.For pediatric OSAHS patient s,58 (85.29 %) patients' symptoms,such as snoring,breath difficulty, mouth breathing,or pharyngeal obstruction,were relieved and 10 (14.71%) patients' symptoms were improved. CONCLUSION Coblation is widely used in ENT patients with good results.Its advantages include easy to use, minimal invasive,safe,and much less pain.It is specially suitable for pediatric OSAHS patients.
