  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea and the Role of Tongue Reduction Surgery in Children with Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (2018)
    RESEARCH INSTITUTE Obstructive sleep apnea and the role of tongue reduction surgery in children with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (2018) Christopher M. Cielo, Kelly A. Duffy, Aesha Vyas, Jesse A. Taylor, Jennifer M. Kalish Background Patients with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) can be affected by a large tongue (macroglossia). Similar to other features of BWS, macroglossia can vary in severity between patients. Studies suggest that children with macroglossia are at an increased risk for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a condition that is also highly variable, ranging from mild sleep obstruction to severe respiratory distress. No recommendations regarding OSA management in patients with BWS and macroglossia exist. Purpose This article reviews all available evidence regarding children with Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) and macroglossia. The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and management strategies in this population are discussed. Findings Evaluations Children suspected of having BWS and macroglossia should receive the following evaluations. No clear guidelines exist for at what age children should be evaluated. • Clinical Genetics: Any child with a feature suggestive of BWS should be referred to a clinical geneticist, who can evaluate the patient and determine whether the patient meets criteria for a clinical diagnosis of BWS. • Plastic Surgery: Patients with macroglossia should be referred to a plastic surgeon, who can evaluate the size of the tongue to determine whether a tongue reduction surgery is necessary. • Pulmonology: A pulmonologist can evaluate the degree to which the large tongue affects breathing, as an increased tongue size can narrow the airway and cause upper airway obstruction. o Polysomnography (sleep study) is used for evaluation of OSA in children and has been used in certain studies of BWS children to detect the following: moderate- severe OSA, upper airway obstruction, apnea, upper airway resistance, severe desaturation, sleep-disordered breathing, and snoring.

  • The Efficacy of Lingual Laser Frenectomy in Pediatric OSAS

Background: Several authors have shown that a short lingual frenulum causes a reduction in incoming air flow and the relationship between OSAS and a short lingual frenulum. Methods: Thirty-two pediatric patients were equally randomly divided into a Study Group (SG) and a Control Group (CG). On each SG patient a polysomnography 1 (PSG1) and a lingual frenectomy were performed using a diode laser via Doctor Smile Wiser technology, power 7 W. After three months, a new polysomnography (PSG2) was performed to evaluate the lingual frenectomy efficacy in pediatric patients. The pain was assessed by a numerical rating scale (NRS) before and after surgery. The CG followed the same protocol without a lingual frenectomy but myofunctional and speech therapy were conducted to qualitatively and quantitatively improve the lingual functionality. In the SG, eight Citation: Fioravanti, M.; Zara, F.; subjects (50%) had severe OSAS and eight had moderate (50%) while in the CG, three subjects had Vozza, I.; Polimeni, A.; Sfasciotti, G.L.

Available at: https://ecommons.aku.edu/pakistan_fhs_mc_surg_dent_oral_maxillofac/108 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Evaluation of cervical spine posture after functional therapy with twin-block appliances: A retrospective cohort study Adeel Tahir Kamal and Mubassar Fida Karachi, Pakistan Introduction: It has been postulated that a change in cervical posture occurs as a consequence of forward re- positioning of the mandible. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare the cervical spine posture be- tween subjects with and without functional appliance therapy. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted with the use of pre- and post–functional therapy cephalograms of orthodontic patients. A total of 60 subjects was composed of 2 groups of 30 subjects each: those who underwent treatment with a twin- block (TB) functional appliance and a control group selected from the Bolton-Brush Growth Study. Three sagittal and 7 cervical vertebral parameters were compared between the groups. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare pre- and postfunctional mean angular measurements.
