腭咽成形术后通气情况的随访研究

目的 了解腭裂患者行腭咽成形术后通气状态的变化情况。方法 对35例腭裂患者行腭咽肌瓣咽成形术（SPP）或咽后壁瓣咽成形术（PF），并在术后半年对腭咽通气情况进行随访。结果 腭咽通气孔堵塞时间平均为（42.8±32.4）d，SPP组和PF组术后腭咽堵塞时间差异无统计学意义。28名患者有经常口干的情况；34名患者有睡眠时打鼾现象。结论 腭咽成形术后患者腭咽部堵塞时间为术后42.8 d，口呼吸和睡眠时打鼾是其常见并发症。

A follow-up study on velopharyngeal airway condition post pharyngoplasty

Objective To observe changes in velopharyngeal airway condition post pharyngoplasty. Methods Thirty-five patients underwent sphincter pharyngoplasty (SPP) or pharyngeal flap (PF). The follow-up period was approximately six months. Duration of velopharyngeal airway obstruction was recorded. Results Average obstruction duration was (42.8 ± 32.4) d. No significant difference in obstruction duration was found between the SPP and PF groups . Twenty-eight patients complained of mouth and lip dryness. Thirty-four patients experienced snoring while sleeping. Conclusion Average obstruc-tion duration post pharyngoplasty is 42.8 d. Oral respiration and snoring are common complications.
