Laryngal cancer surgery

Snoring, excessive daytime somnolence, restless sleep, and apnea are manifestations of sleep-disordered breathing. Surgical management of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is indicated when a surgically correctable abnormality is believed to be the source of the problem and the patient has tried continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) without success. In addition, many patients opt for surgical treatment after non-invasive forms of treatment have proven ineffective or difficult to tolerate.

Surgical alteration of the upper airway usually involves 1 or more structures, including the nasal septum, inferior nasal turbinates, adenoids, tonsis, anterior and posterior tonsillar pillars, uvula, soft palate, or the base of the tongue.
