Pillar Procedure Successes and Failures?
in [Sleep Disorder]
|
From: CPD on 4 Dec 2005 13:09 Can anyone share their experiences--good or bad--with the Pillar Procedure? Seems to be a fairly simple and quick outpatient surgery. My doctor feels it's too early to try, tho', as it's just been approved for OSA just over a year. I'm hoping it will eventually be a much better alternative to CPAP.

My physician and ENT are both cautious citing a lack of time to review. Looking forward to hearing more from people who have actually had it.

He went by the name Sleepy Stoboy. The subject line was: Pillar Implant Procedure - 90 day sleep study results for your review Search in the google archives by that name, and you will find that there was a pretty good exchange about his results 90 days after the surgery.
