TESTIMONIALS
Our patient, 41 years old İlhan Paşaoğlu is working as a manager in a private company, married and father of one child. He applied with the complaints of snoring, instant breath cessation during the sleep, tired waking, daytime sleepiness, headache. The sleep test indicates, breathing stopped 135 times per hour and severe snoring and oxygen levels were found to decrease by more than 100 per hour. This was caused by obstructive sleep apneas. First, to the patient, who avoided surgery, was given a CPAP device, but our patient, who could not use the device for 3 months, applied again for surgery. With multi-level robotic sleep surgery, we performed operations on the soft palate, tonsils, tongue root, and larynx. On the 5th day of surgery, we discharged our patient, and the 15th day of surgery we were able to send our patient back home to Antalya. In the sleep test performed at 3 months postoperatively, we have observed that the number of apnea decreased from 135 to 4 and we learned that our patient was fully cured.
Turan Kaylan who lives in the Netherlands and our 31 years old patient, is married and father of 4 children, he is dealing with trade in Holland. He applied with severe snoring, instant breath cessation during the sleep, probable apnea, daytime sleepiness, poor concentration complaints. In the polysomnography study, severe positional obstructive sleep apnea syndrome was diagnosed. In the examination, it was observed that the blood oxygen levels dropped to 81%. Mr. Kaylan, who did not want to use a CPAP device, applied to Prof.Dr.Kayhan after he could not find a successful surgical treatment option in the Netherlands. After examination of the patient, we recommended multilevel robotic sleep surgery and applied multilevel sleep surgery with a robot to soft palate, tonsil, tongue root and laryngeal levels. We discharged our patient on the 5th day after the operation and send back him to the Netherlands on the 15th day, completely free from snoring and daytime sleepiness.
