Allergic reaction to hypoglossal nerve stimulator: a case report.
Little is documented about the frequency and management of allergic reactions to hypoglossal nerve stimulator implants. This case report describes a 69-year-old female with obstructive sleep apnea who received a hypoglossal nerve stimulator device and had an adverse reaction concerning for an allergic reaction to the medical device. The complication was managed via topical steroids, and although the patient's symptoms initially resolved she experiences continued intermittent maculopapular pruritic rashes approximately once per week. This case report details the patient's presentation, including progression and management, while also highlighting the diagnostic challenges in identifying allergic reactions to medical implants and offering considerations for future management.

期刊介绍:
Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine focuses on clinical sleep medicine. Its emphasis is publication of papers with direct applicability and/or relevance to the clinical practice of sleep medicine. This includes clinical trials, clinical reviews, clinical commentary and debate, medical economic/practice perspectives, case series and novel/interesting case reports. In addition, the journal will publish proceedings from conferences, workshops and symposia sponsored by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine or other organizations related to improving the practice of sleep medicine.
