Adresse de correspondance : Clinique Ambroise Paré, 387, route Saint-Simon, 31082 Toulouse
Résumé
Chez l’enfant, le syndrome des voies aéro-digestives supérieures qui entraîne des apnées du sommeil et des difficultés de déglutition, peut également avoir des répercussions neurologiques staturo-pondérales, ainsi que des modifications notables de la croissance maxillofaciale. L’examen ORL approfondi permet d’en déterminer l’étiologie et de proposer la thérapeutique adaptée.
Abstract
In children, the syndrome of obstruction of the upper air and digestive pathways that leads to sleep apnea and difficulties in swallowing, can also cause neurological repercussions in stature and balance as well as serious impairment of maxillo-facial growth. An in-depth ENT examination will be of great help in the determination of etiology and the formulation of a customized treatment plan.
