Abstract: Objective To evaluate the surgical treatment efficacy and change of quality of life of patients with moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods Clinical data of 48 patients with OSAHS confirmed by polysomnography (PSG) were collected. Preoperative and postoperative apnea hyponea Index (AHI), lowest oxyhemoglobin saturation (LaSO2), mean oxyhemoglobin saturation (MSaO2), sleep efficiency and quality of life (determined by Quebec sleep questionnaire) were compared. Results ① After surgical treatment, AHI reduced from (56.3±18.2) to (28.4±20.8), and LaSO2 rose from (64.2±12.8) to (75.1±13.4). There were statistically significant differences (P<0.05). ② After surgical treatment, patients' quality of life was improved, especially the daytime sleepiness. ③ According to objective indicators, the cure rate was 5.5%, effectual rate was 25.0%, effective rate was 44.5%, ineffective rate was 25.0%, and the total effective rate was 75.0%. According to subjective symptoms, the total effective rate was 88.9%, of which daytime sleepiness was 61.1%, daytime symptom was 80.6%, nighttime symptom was 38.9%, emotion was 69.4%, social interaction was 61.1%. Conclusion To develop multi-plane individualized treatment programs based on different blocking plane is key to the success of surgical treatment of OSAHS, and can significantly improve patients' quality of life. To evaluate the surgical efficacy, both subjective and objective indicators should be considered.

[9] This study aimed to describe the clinical features of 74 patients with cleft palate cysts and fistulas and analyze the diagnosis and treatment methods. MethodsBetween January 2010 and September 2019, the clinical data of 74 patients with branchial cleft cysts and fistulas were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed with related literature in our department. ResultsOf the 74 patients, 50 patients were diagnosed with second branchial cleft anomalies, 13 patients had first branchial cleft lesions, 10 patients had third branchial cleft lesions, and one patient had a fourth branchial cleft lesion. All patients received surgical treatment. After the exclusion of 3 patients who were lost to follow-up, 67 patients were successfully treated, 3 patients reported relapse, and 1 had permanent facial paralysis. ConclusionsThe clinical manifestations of congenital cleft palate cysts and fistulas are diverse, and the differential diagnosis is complicated. It is essential to perform a detailed physical examination and preoperative evaluation to make an accurate diagnosis. The approach for management is individualized, and surgical rehabilitation is the preferred treatment..
