INTRODUCTION: Maintenance of the patency of upper airway structures and sufficient ventilation are extremely important for children and adolescents because of influence on physical and mental development. Many clinicians analysing characteristics of patients with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome have reported association between craniofacial abnormalities and respiratory disorders in the upper respiratory tract.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to examine relationship between position of hyoid bone and clinical symptoms of respiratory disorders in the upper airway.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hundred patients participated in this study (range 9 - 35 years), all of them with evidence of craniofacial changes and abnormal dental patterns. Data were gained by clinical inspection of the naso-, oro- and hypopharynx, plaster cast analysis and cephalometric analysis according to Hasund, suppplemented by non-specific soft tissue and skeletal parameters.
RESULTS: Breathing disorders in upper airway tract appear in 67 from 100 patients. Respiratory disorders with increasing severity are described: breathing with the mouth open, snoring and sleep apnoea syndrome. Statistical analysis showed differences in hyoid bone position and tongue size between patients with and without breathing disorders.
CONCLUSION: Increased displacement of the hyoid bone, correspond to severity of breathing disorders. The hyoid bone in patients with upper airway obstruction is more inferiorly and posteriorly located.
