Abstract: Objective:To explore the curative effect of hard palate shortening (HPS) combined with uvulopalatopharyngolasty (UPPP) in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Methods: Sixteen patients with OSAHS were subjected to HPS combined with UPPP. The pre-and post-ESS scores, polysomnography (PSG), Muller test, and cephalometric data were compared. Results:The grade of ESS, PSG and SaO2 was statistically significant (P<0.05), and the upper airway space was obviously wider than that of the pre-operative. It was showed by Mueller′s method that the collapse degree of the pharyngeal wall was significantly decreased during inspiration. Conclusion: For OSAHS patients with an obviously narrow bony pharyngonasal and velopharyngeal cavity, HPS combined with UPPP improves not only the surgical effective power but also the curative rate.

Key words: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, Hard palate shortening, Uvulopalatopharyngolasty, Cephalometrics

[4] Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS)and laryngopharyngeal reflux disease(LPRD)are two common diseases in otolaryngology. In recent years, with the increasing incidence, these diseases have affected the health of more and more people. As research on these two diseases continues to expand, the correlation between them has captured the attention of a number of scholars. In this study, we reviewed the recently published literature on the two diseases, concluding that there is a correlation between them. We have also elaborated on the factors and mechanisms of their mutual influence, analyzed the existing treatment methods of OSAS and LPRD, and provided new ideas for further refinement of the diagnosis and treatment..
