Abstract

Introduction: The management of the Apert airway presents a rare and difficult challenge. The level of airway obstruction includes the pyriform aperture, nasal passages, posterior choanae, nasopharynx and oropharynx. Moreover, this group is prone to central apnoeas. Our aim was to study the treatment modalities of the Apert airway at our Craniofacial unit and to determine if there has been a trend away from tracheostomy.
