Abstract

Human hyoid bone floats in the neck. Downwards of an amount of about half vertebra and 0.3 cm forward following the correction of the glosso-larynx (CGL) was observed by simple XP. Disappearance of symptoms of the ankyloglossia with deviation of the epiglottis and larynx (ADEL) and increased of body temperature were observed after CGL. The results suggest that hyoid bone makes a complex that controls not only respiration and swallowing but also controls metabolism. It might be called hyoid bone complex (HBC).

Summary

Introduction

Symptoms and signs of ankyloglossia with deviation of the epiglottis and larynx (ADEL) are caused by respiratory insufficiencies. Correction of the glosso-larynx (CGL) is a surgery for ADEL, consisting in cutting the frontal bundles of genioglossus muscles. Following CGL, the deviated epiglottis and larynx move downwards aligned with the choanae, and improved respiratory rate and pulmonary function and increased body temperature are observed. The possible mechanisms leading to improved respiratory rate and increased body temperature cannot be explained by the cut of the bundles of genioglossus muscle alone and additional factors are likely to play a role, for example positional changes of the hyoid bone occurring after CGL [1] [2] [3] [4] [5].
