Résumé

This study aims to explore the factors that contribute to epiglottic collapse (EC) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This study enrolled 35 patients (34 males; median age, 39 years; median apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), 55.4 events/h; median body mass index (BMI), 26.9 kg/m EC was found in 12 patients (34%). No difference in age, gender, AHI, and BMI between the two groups was noted. The anatomical measurement revealed that epiglottis length was significantly different between the EC and NEC groups (21.2 vs 15.8 mm; Epiglottis is a potential collapse site among multilevel obstruction in moderate to severe OSA patients. Epiglottic length is highly sensitive in predicting EC, with the cutoff value of 16.6 mm. Hyoid movement plays a role in contributing to EC in OSA patients.
