RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the clinical efficacy of weight management combined with pharyngoplasty for treatment of obesity-related obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).@*METHODS@#Sixty obese patients with OSAHS were randomly assigned into the combined treatment group and control group (@*RESULTS@#After 6 months of treatment, the patients receiving the combined treatment showed significant reductions of BMI, neck circumference and waist circumference as compared with the measurements before treatment and with those in the control group (@*CONCLUSIONS@#Weight management combined with uvulopalatopharyngoplasty can produce a good clinical efficacy for treatment of OSAHS with obesity, and the patients should have strengthened continuous family weight management while receiving surgical treatment.

Objective To explore short-term effect of tonsillotomy on children′s obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) with tonsil hypertrophy by Ellman double-frequency radio-frequency machine .Methods Totally 30 cases children′s OS-AHS with tonsil hypertrophy were had tonsillotomy by Ellman double-frequency radio-frequency machine .They were compared with 30 cases children′s OSAHS with tonsil hypertrophy by traditional tonsillectomy .Short-term effect of tonsillotomy were ana-lyzed by wound bleeding ,operation time ,postoperative pain ,difficulty eating ,PSG testing ,immune function ,growth and develop-ment .Results Postoperative symptom in 1 weeks and 6 months ,compared with the traditional tonsillectomy ,30 cases of OSAHS patients were found that there were less bleeding ,shorter operative time ,mild postoperative pain ,no difficulty in feeding ,improving sleep-disordered breathing ,no decline in immune function ,good growth and development .Conclusion Short-term effect of tonsillot-omy on children′s OSAHS with tonsil hypertrophy is good by Ellman double-frequency radio-frequency machine ,it is a minimally invasive ,safe and effective surgical method children OSA HS .
