In most conferences, the souvenir is just a vehicle to carry advertisements, but not so for the AOMSI conference souvenir. This is an important document which not only lists the scientific schedule but also includes the introduction of the faculty and abstracts of the keynote lectures as well as free papers. The members of AOMSI are in sync with the information age; and so this time we have done away with the print version and opted for the more convenient e-version. No need to carry the souvenir back in your luggage! E- souvenir is easy to download, and can be read at your convenience In this souvenir we have tried to capture the essence of the conference, and we hope you like it. I was fortunate to have a wonderful team working on this project. All credit for the good work goes to my team and if there are any errors, the responsibility is mine. I thank Dr Nimisha Desai, Organizing Chairperson and Dr Hiren Patel, Organizing Secy and the entire committee for entrusting me with this important work, and giving me a good team to work with, and a free hand in completing the work.

It does not constitute a contract or guarantee regarding coverage or reimbursement/payment. Self-Insured group specific policy will supersede this general policy when group supplementary plan document or individual plan decision directs otherwise. Paramount applies coding edits to all medical claims through coding logic software to evaluate the accuracy and adherence to accepted national standards. This medical policy is solely for guiding medical necessity and explaining correct procedure reporting used to assist in making coverage decisions and administering benefits. SCOPE X Professional _ Facility DESCRIPTION Sleep apnea is a disorder where breathing nearly or completely stops for periods of time during sleep. In obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), the brain sends the message to breathe, but there is a blockage to air flowing into the chest. It is a condition in which repetitive episodes of upper airway obstruction occur during sleep. The obstruction may be localized to one or two areas, or may encompass the entire upper airway passages to include the nasal cavity (nose), oropharynx (palate, tonsils, tonsillar pillars) and hypopharynx (tongue base). The hallmark symptom of OSA is excessive daytime sleepiness, and the typical clinical sign of OSA is snoring, which can abruptly cease and be followed by gasping associated with a brief arousal from sleep. The snoring resumes when the patient falls back to sleep, and the cycle of snoring/apnea/arousal may be repeated as frequently as every minute throughout the night.

    32 Surgical Treatment of Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders Donald M. Sesso Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery, Stanford University Medical Center, Stanford, California, U.S.A. Nelson B. Powell and Robert W. Riley Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery, Stanford University Medical Center and Department of Behavioral Sciences, Division of Sleep Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California, U.S.A. INTRODUCTION Snoring, upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) are collectively referred to as sleep- related breathing disorders (SRBD). These terms describe a partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during sleep. Patency of the pharyngeal airway is maintained by two opposing forces: negative intraluminal pressure and the activity of the upper airway musculature. Anatomical or central neural abnormalities can disrupt this delicate balance and result in compromise of the upper airway. This reduction of airway caliber may cause sleep fragmentation and subsequent behavioral derangements, such as excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) (1–3). The goal of medical and surgical therapy is to alleviate this obstruction and increase airway patency. The first therapeutic modality employed to treat SRBD was surgery. Kuhlo described placement of a tracheotomy tube in an attempt to bypass upper airway obstruction in Pickwickian patients (4). Although effective, tracheotomy does not address the specific sites of pharyngeal collapse and is not readily accepted by most patients. These sites include the nasal cavity/nasopharynx, oropharynx, and hypopharynx. Often, multilevel obstruction is present. Consequently, the surgical armamentarium has evolved to create techniques that correct the specific anatomical sites of obstruction.

  • Genioglossus Advancement
    Genioglossus Advancement Why is this surgery used? The tongue is made primarily of muscle. For people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), the tongue may relax during sleep and collapse, blocking the upper airway. Genioglossus advancement creates more room for the tongue during sleep, so airway collapse does not happen. The genioglossus is the muscle located under the tongue that helps you stick out your tongue. It is attached to a small bone on the inside of the lower jaw. A genioglossus advancement is a surgical procedure where the tongue muscle that is attached to the lower jaw is pulled forward (advanced), pulling the tongue more forward and less collapsible during sleep. This surgery will allow the airway to widen during sleep. This surgery is done for patients that have collapsing of their airway at the level of the tongue, and cannot tolerate CPAP therapy. • See the video here to watch a description of the procedure: https://www.nycsleepwell.com/treatment/sleep-apnea-surgical- treatment/genioglossus-advancement/ What will happen during the procedure? This procedure is done in the operating room with general anesthesia. General anesthesia means that you receive drugs that make you unconscious and have no awareness during your surgery. 1. A small incision is made in the front of your lower mouth. The incisions all take place within the mouth, so you will not have any scarring. 2. A hole is made in the lower jaw bone. This piece of bone along with the attachment for the tongue is pulled forward and fixed by a small screw or a Pediatric Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery - 1 - plate in the external bone surface.

  • Modified Expansion Sphincter Pharyngoplasty for Treatment of Children with Obstructive Sleep Apnea
    Research Original Investigation Modified Expansion Sphincter Pharyngoplasty for Treatment of Children With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Seckin O. Ulualp, MD IMPORTANCE Lateral pharyngeal wall collapse has been implicated in the pathogenesis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Modified expansion sphincter pharyngoplasty (ESP) is a simple procedure and can be considered in the surgical management of children with severe OSA. OBJECTIVE To describe a modified ESP addressing lateral pharyngeal muscle wall collapse in the treatment of children with OSA. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Retrospective review of the medical records of children with OSA and lateral pharyngeal muscle wall collapse who underwent modified ESP and children who had tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (TA) for OSA between 2008 and 2013 at a tertiary care children’s hospital. INTERVENTIONS Modified ESP. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcome measure was the rate of cure, which was defined as an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) lower than 1. Other outcomes were differences in preoperative and postoperative AHI, minimum saturation of peripheral oxygen, and percentage of total sleep study time with oxygen saturation less than 90%. RESULTS Twenty-five children who had modified ESP and 25 AHI-matched children who had TA for severe OSA were identified. The postoperative AHI was lower than the preoperative AHI in both groups. Preoperative AHI was similar between modified ESP and TA groups. The Author Affiliations: Department of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck mean (SD) postoperative AHI of the modified ESP group (2.4 [3.9]) was lower than that of the Surgery, University of Texas TA group (6.2 [6.0]) (P < .001). Cure rates for the modified ESP group (AHI <1, 64%; AHI <2, Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas; 72%; and AHI <5, 80%) were greater than those for the TA group (AHI <1, 8%; AHI <2, 44%; Division of Pediatric Otolaryngology, and AHI <5, 60%).

  • Surgical Options for the Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea
    Surgical Options for the Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea a, b Jon-Erik C. Holty, MD, MS *, Christian Guilleminault, MD, DBiol KEYWORDS Obstructive sleep apnea Sleep apnea syndromes Surgery Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly prevalent condition characterized by increased nocturnal airflow resistance resulting in repetitive episodes of pharyngeal collapse during sleep.1 Approximately 20% of adults in the United States have OSA (defined as an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) R5/h) with up to 10% having moderate to severe disease (AHI R15/h).2,3 In addition, between 3% and 10% of children have OSA (AHI R1/h).4–7 Obesity, male gender, advancing age, and mandibular- maxillary insufficiency are well-characterized risk factors.8 OSA predisposes to increased cardiovascular and cerebrovascular morbidity and mortality, and is associ- ated with excessive daytime sleepiness and neurocognitive underperformance.8 Untreated, the 15-year mortality for adults with severe disease is approximately 30% with adjusted mortality hazards ratios of 1.4, 1.7, and 3.8 for mild, moderate, and severe disease, respectively (P-trend 5 0.004).2 Conventional nonsurgical OSA therapy necessitates indefinite positive airway pres- sure (eg, continuous positive airway pressure [CPAP] or bilevel therapy) that works by pneumatically stenting open the upper airway, thus preventing apneas and hypopneas during sleep.9–11 CPAP is an effective treatment modality for OSA, improving symp- toms (eg, excessive daytime sleepiness, quality of life) and reducing cardiovascular mortality.12,13 Unfortunately, more than 50% of patients with OSA are intolerant of and ultimately reject CPAP therapy.14,15 Common complaints include mask discom- fort and leak, rhinorrhea, conjunctivitis, dry mouth, nasal congestion, aerophagia, claustrophobia, and chest wall discomfort.6 Individuals intolerant of CPAP therapy have a 10% absolute increased mortality risk (compared with adherent subjects) at 5 years.16,17 Contract/Grant Support: None.

    THIEME 266 Original Research Hyoid Bone Suspension as a Part of Multilevel Surgery for Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome Abd Alzaher Tantawy1 Sherif Mohammad Askar1 Hazem Saeed Amer1 Ali Awad1 Mohammad Waheed El-Anwar1 1 Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, Address for correspondence Mohammad Waheed El-Anwar, MD, Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University, Zagazig, Egypt Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University, Shaibet an Nakareyah, Int Arch Otorhinolaryngol 2018;22:266–270. Markaz El-Zakazik, Ash Sharqia Governorate 44519, Egypt (e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected]). Abstract Introduction Since oropharyngeal surgery alone is often insufficient to treat ob- structive sleep apnea (OSA), advances have been developed in hypopharyngeal surgery. Objective To assess hyoid suspension surgery as part of a multilevel OSA surgery, also including palatal surgery. Methods The study included patients with OSA symptoms with apnea hypopnea index (AHI) > 15. They were scheduled for hyoid suspension after a nasoendoscopy during Müller maneuver and drug induced sleep endoscopy (DISE). All patients had body mass index (BMI) < 35 kg/m2. Hyoidothyroidopexy combined with tonsillectomy and palatal suspension was performed in all cases. Results The mean AHI dropped significantly (p < 0.0001) from 68.4 Æ 25.3 preo- peratively to 25.6 Æ 9.52 postoperatively. The mean lowest oxygen (O2) saturation level increased significantly from 66.8 Æ 11.3 to 83.2 Æ 2.86 (p < 0.0001). In addi- tion, the snoring score significantly decreased (p < 0.0001) from a preoperative mean Keywords of 3.4 Æ 0.54 to 2 Æ 0.7 at 6 months postoperatively.
