1 The Ear, Nose and Throat in MPS Annerose Keilmann Voice Care Center Bad Rappenau, Germany Preciptorship program on MPS Wiesbaden, November 2 nd 2015

2 Alterations of the outer and middle ear in MPS I narrowing of the external auditory canals, chronic otits externa middle ear effusion, chronic inflammation of the middle ear deformation of the ossicles, especially the stapes thickened mucosa and granulation in the middle ear

3 Therapeutic Options adenoidectomy ventilation tubes t-tube Optimizing and stabilizing of the hearing ability

4 Optimizing the ventilation of the middle ear does not automatically normalize hearing ablility conductive component may persist after myringotomy clinicians should not delay considering hearing aids for MPS children

5 Inner Ear in MPS hearing loss seems to increase with age high variability degeneration of the organ of Corti Reissner s membrane adherent to tectorial membrane lack of neurons, Hurler cells in the spiral ganglion distended congested vessels in the stria vascularis

6 Audiogram of a 12 yrs old patient with MPSI

7 Hearing aid fitting?

8 8 Mainz data hearing loss:

9 9 Many patients need hearing aids:

10 Fitting of hearing aids in permanent hearing losses conductive losses caused by deformation of the ossicles, especially the stapes, thickened mucosa and granulation in the middle ear Sensorineural losses only possible if the hearing loss is not to much fluctuating impedes the ventilation of the outer ear channal and increases the probability of inflammations

11 Mouth Thickened lips Gingival hyperplasia, gapped teeth Macroglossia Tonsillar hypertrophy Sore throat swelling of the mucosa, mucus

12 Incisor gap (in mm); n = 87 MPS subgroup Mean (mm) Range (mm) MPS I MPS II MPS IV MPS VI MPS: mucopolysaccharidoses

13 Incisor gap n = 87 Incisor gap (cm) Subgroups of MPS

14 Mallampati classification Class I II III IV Description Soft palate, uvula and palatal arch are completely visible Palatoglossal arch is partially visible, tip of the uvula is not visible Only soft palate visible Only hard palate visible Mallampati SR et al. Can Anaesth Soc J 1985;32:429-34; Samsoon GL and Young YR. Anaesthesia 1987;42:487-90

15 Mallampati classification ALL MPS I MPS II MPS IV MPS VI

16 The progressive accumulation of partially degraded glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) within the cells of various body tissues leads to cellular dysfunction Facial dysmorphism Widened nasal bridge, large nares

17 Nose Restricted nasal airflow Tonsillar hypertrophy Recurrent nose infections ( running nose ) Inferior turbinate Adenoid Nasopharynx

18 Sleep apnea Significant upper airway obstruction Hypertrophy of the adenoids and tonsils Thickening of the mucosa Alteration of the base of the tongue Hypopharynx Larynx

19 Therapeutic options Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) Increasing the input of fluids Antibiotic treatment in case of bacterial infection Steroids in case of sudden worsening Adenoidectomy, inferior turbinate reduction Tonsillectomy Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)

20 Surgery in patients with MPS II Type of surgery Percentage (%) Median age (years) 10 th -90 th percentile (years) Adenoidectomy Tonsillectomy Tracheotomy

21 21 MPS Adenoids (200x) normal

22 ENT surgery in patients with MPS is often very helpful in children with narrow upper airways should be done only in specialized centres

23 Alterations of pharynx and larynx A T S V classification protocol in which the alterations of mucosa in the posterior region of the larynx the false the true vocal folds and the the epiglottis, were documented flexible or rigid endoscopy Keilmann A, Bendel F, Nospes S, Lampe C, Läßig A: Alterations of the larynx and hypopharynx in patients with mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS). J Laryngol Otol in press

24 A: Posterior region of the larynx 0 Normal 1 Minimally extended volume of the mucosa 2 Markedly extended volume of the mucosa without obstruction of the airways 3 Markedly extended volume of the mucosa with obstruction of the airways 4 Mucosa is moved into and out of the larynx during inspiration and expiration

25 A: Posterior region of the larynx A1 T0 A1 T1 A4 T2

26 T: Laryngeal vestible false vocal folds 0 Normal 1 Minimally extended volume of the mucosa of the false vocal folds 2 Markedly extended volume of the mucosa without obstruction of the airways 3 Markedly extended volume of the mucosa with obstruction of the airways 4 Mucosa of the region of the false vocal folds is moved up and down during inspiration and expiration

27 T: Laryngeal vestible false vocal folds A1 T0 A4 T3 T4

28 6 months under ERT Before ERT

29 Ask an ENT specialist or pediatric audiologist to follow your MPS team! treatment of the inflammations in the upper respiratory tract symptomatic treatment adenoidectomy, tonsillectomy insertion of ventilation tubes fitting of hearing aids documentation of the symptoms

30 Thank you for your kind attention!
