    Objective To explore the etiology, manifestation and therapy of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome caused by laryngeal diseases(OSAHSLD). Methods 13 patients with OSAHSLD were included in the study. The etiology, manifestation and therapy were reviewed. Results The 13 OSAHSLD patients, diagnosed by plysomnography, obtained good curative effect after the laryngeal lesions were removed. The laryngeal diseases consisted of bilateral vocal cords paralysis(6 cases), laryngeal papillary epithelioma(1 case), epiglottis neurilemmoma(1 case), huge epiglottis cyst(3 cases), and epiglottis softening(2 cases). The body mass indexes were normal in all the patients, and moderate dyspnea was noted in the patients with bilateral paralysis of vocal cords. Conclusion The OSAHS can be induced by laryngeal disease, in which tumor/cyst of epiglottis and paralysis of bilateral vocal cords are common etiology. OSAHSLD can be cured if the primary laryngeal diseases are removed.

    Objective To analyze the correlation of neck circumference (NC) with sleepingrespiratory parameters and dimensions of upper airway in the patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods 61 OSAHS patients diagnosed by polysomnogaphy (PSG) were included in this study. With CT scanning, the velopharyngeal and glossopharyngeal crosssectional area, dimensions of upper airway and the area ratio of pharynx/neck were measured. NC, body mass index (BMI), height and weight were collected. The correlation between NC and the other parameters were analyzed. Results In 61 OSAHS patients, NC was positively correlated with BMI (r=0.623, P<0.01), and positively correlated with T90 and ODI, respectively (r=0.284, P<0.05; r=0.260, P<0.05). NC was negatively correlated with LSaO2 (r=-0.317, P<0.05), as well as two area ratios of pharynx/neck (r=-0.258, P<0.05; r=-0.276, P<0.05). Finally, NC was positively correlated with the front diameter of velopharyngeal region and the back diameter of glossopharygeal region (r=0.293, P<0.05; r=0.290, P<0.05). Conclusion The increasing NC can scale down the crosssectional area of upper airway and aggravate airway obstruction, hypertrophy of soft palate, and hyoxemia. NC is a good predictor for the development of OSAHS.

    Objective To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ropivacaine mesylate in uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP). Methods Based on the concentration of ropivacaine applied in the operation, 80 UPPP patients were divided randomly into group A (0.15% ropivacaine), B (0.3% ropivacaine), C (0.6% ropivacaine) or D (no ropivacaine but placebo). Each group consisted of 20 cases. Under general anesthesia, 4Ml of corresponding ropivacaine mesylate were injected into the lower part of palatoglossal arch, while upper and middle parts of palatoglossal arch and upper part of palatopharyngeal arch were infiltrated with 2ml ropivacaine, respectively. For the group D, no ropivacaine but normal saline were applied. Postoperative blood oxygen saturation, breathing, blood pressure and electrocardiogram were monitored , as well as visual analogue scale score (VAS), Ramsay sedation score, use of analgesics at 2,4,6,12,24 and 48hours after the operation. Results VAS score of group A was lower than that of group D at 6th hours after the operation(P<0.05); VAS score of Group B and C were lower than that of group D at 48th hours(P<0.05); Ramsay sedation scores of the four groups were not significantly different; The usage of analgesics in group A, B and C all were lower than group D(P<0.05). In three patients in group C and four in group D, swallowing disorder were noted. No difference of sideeffects among the four groups were significant. Conclusion Ropivacaine shows satisfying pain control and safety in uvulopalatopharyngoplasty, esp. 0.3% ropivacaine.

    Objective To investigate the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) in development of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma by detecting expression of HPV DNA and its different subtypes in easter of the Shandong province. Methods Fifty-seven patients with laryngeal carcinoma treated in our department were enrolled, and, in the same period, eight patients with papilloma of the larynx served as the control group. HPV subtypes were detected in both groups with a DNA chip technology combining polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with DNA reverse point hybrid. Results Only 4(7.02%)were positive in 57 cases of laryngeal carcinoma specimens, and the positive rate was lower than that in laryngeal papilloma(6/8, 75%)(χ2=24.906,P<0.01). Respectively comparing the expression of highrisk HPV16 and low-risk HPV43 subtypes between the both groups, we did not find significant difference (χ2=5.611,0.143,P>0.05); expressions of lowrisk HPV11 and HPV6 in laryngeal papilloma were higher than those in laryngeal carcinoma (χ2= 8.611,14.702,P<0.05). Conclusion The rate of HPV infection is low among laryngeal carcinoma patients in easter of the Shandong province. Low-risk HPV6 and HPV11 may be closely related with the occurrence of laryngeal papilloma.

    Objective To investigate the expression of FOXP3 in cancer cells and FOXP3positive lymphocyte invasion in the tumor stroma separately, and to evaluate their clinical values in predicting the prognosis of esophagus cancer of the neck. Methods Envision immunohistochemistry and doubleimmunostaining method were used to detect the expression of Foxp3 and FOXP3positive lymphocyte invasion in 42 specimens of esophagus cancer of the neck and 30 specimens adjacent to carcinoma. Results The positive rate of FOXP3 protein in parenchyma was 42.9% (18/42)in esophagus cancer of the neck and 6.67%(2/30)in tissues adjacent to carcinoma(χ2=10.324, P<0.01). The positive rate of FOXP3positive lymphocytes in mesenchyma was 38.1%(16/42)in cancer tissues and 13.33%(4/30)in tissues adjacent to carcinoma(χ2=15.376, P<0.01). In parenchyma of esophagus cancer of the neck, the expression of FOXP3 protein in the patients with lymph nodes metastasis was positively higher than the patients without(P<0.05). And, the expression in stage Ⅲ orⅣ was all positively higher than that in stages Ⅰor Ⅱ(P<0.05). In cancer’s mesenchyma, the expression rate of FOXP3positive lymphocytes in the patients with lymph node metastasis was positively higher than those without(P<0.05). Conclusion The abnormal expression of FOXP3 protein in cancer’s parenchyma and FOXP3positive lymphocytes infiltration in cancer’s mesenchyma may be closely related to metastasis of esophagus cancer of the neck. It could facilitate the immune escape of esophagus cancer of the neck. FOXP3 may be a potential marker to evaluate metastasis of esophagus cancer of the neck.

    Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of CO2 laser microsurgery through suspension laryngoscope combined with human leukocyte interferon on children with recurrent laryngeal papilloma. Methods Clinical data of 61 recurrent laryngeal papilloma patients, treated in E.N.T. Department of Qilu Hospital from 2004 to 2009, were reviewed. All the patients underwent CO2 laser microsurgery through suspension laryngoscope. According to the postoperative medication, the patients were further divided into group A (no interferon) or group B (with interferon). The number of anatomical sites involved by papilloma were counted before and after the treatment. Results Before the operation, the number of anatomical sites involved by papilloma before operationin both groups were 1 to 8 with the average of 3.45±1.86 in group A and 3.53±1.67 in group B. After the treatment, the number of sites turned into 1 to 4 in group A and 1 to 3 in group B with the average value of 2.09±0.87 and 3.53±1.67, respectively(P<0.05). Conclusion CO2 laser microsurgery, with or without interferon treatment, can delay the recurrence of laryngeal papilloma. However, The number of sites involved by papilloma decreases significantly in the microsurgery combined with interferon treatment.
