Despite extensive work of recent years, the essential pathophysiologic mechanism that mediates this process is still unclear. This study was conducted to determine whether distribution of connective tissue in the uvula is different among apneics, snorers and normal controls. Materials and MethodsUvula was obtained by uvulopalatopharyngoplasty in 8 apneics, 6 snorers mean apnea index17.1, 2.43 respectively and by autopsy in 5 individuals not known to have snoring. The surgical specimen of uvula was fixed in 10% formalin and subsequently embedded in paraffin. Each specimen was cut into 5 m-thick section and stained with hematoxylineosin for general appearance, Masson-Trichrome stain for collagen fiber, and Verhoeff stain for elastic fiber. Microscopic examination was performed by two pathologists who were blinded to the polysomnographic data. ResultsInfiltration of inflammatory cells and edema were significantly increased in the snorer and apneic groups compared with the control group p.0001, p.05 respectively. ompared with the normal group, the density of elastic fibers and collagen fibers were significantly decreased in snorers and apneics elastic fiberp.0005, collagen fiberp.01. The distribution of elastic and collagen fiber showed significantly heterogeneous pattern in the snorer and apneic groups compared with the control group elastic fiberp0.001, collagen fiberp onclusionsince connective tissue fibers have the supportive function in the body, this condition may result in increased collapsibility of upper airway and contributes to the development of obstructive sleep apnea.
