摘要
This paper traces the development of the adult human pharynx through evolution, comparative anatomy, and development from infant to adult. Based on phytogeny and otogeny, an hypothesis for the occurrence of obstructive sleep apnea in the mature human is presented. Copyright © 1999 by Thieme Medical Publishers, Inc. All rights reserved.
