Lymphatic Malformation Initially Presenting as Snoring : A Case Report
We describe a case of lymphatic malformation (LM) with snoring as the primary symptom. The patient, an 11-year-old boy, sought medical attention due to "snoring that had worsened over 3 years, accompanied by shortness of breath for 1 month." The preoperative examination showed that the apnea-hypopnea index during sleep was 33.4. The average overnight blood oxygen saturation was 95.3%, reaching a lowest level of 79.9%. Magnetic resonance imaging identified a space-occupying lesion in the postpharyngeal space, leading to significant compression and narrowing of the pharyngeal cavity. This suggested the possibility of a vascular malformation, with a higher proportion of vascular components. The patient underwent resection of the pharyngeal mass and temporary tracheostomy under general anesthesia, and intraoperative freeze and postoperative pathological diagnoses confirmed LM. Postoperative prognosis was favorable.
