sleep related breathing disorders in the Shy Drager Syndrome observations on investigation and management
European Journal of Neurology, 1996Co-Authors: J. Harcourt, P. Spraggs, C. Mathias, G. BrookesAbstract:We report on 18 patients with the Shy-Drager Syndrome who were referred for assessment of a sleep-related breathing disorder. The main symptoms of snoring, apnoea, stridor and daytime hypersomnolence were detailed and vocal cord movement graded by laryngoscopy as normal, mild weakness of abduction or near paralysis of vocal cord movement Sleep studies involving oximetry and observations were performed. Obstructive and central apnoeas were detected in six patients. Many patients with near paralysis of vocal cord abduction had normal sleep studies. Successful management strategies of obstructive cases included CPAP, nasal surgery and tracheostomy or arytenoidectomy alone or in combination. Sleep-related breathing disorders in the Shy-Drager Syndrome may involve significant nocturnal desaturation; investigation with suitable medical or surgical treatment should be employed in these patients.

Vocal cord paralysis in the Shy-Drager Syndrome
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009Co-Authors: Heikki TeräväinenAbstract:2 patients with Shy-Drager Syndrome with complete bilateral vocal cord paralysis are described. Attention is drawn to the facts that the recurrent laryngeal branch may be affected selectively with preserved parasympathetic function and that bilateral vocal cord paralysis can precede the appearance of both autonomic and extrapyramidal symptoms.
