1 Airway Imaging in Pediatric OSA Kasey Li, MD, DDS, FACS Stanford University Sleep Medicine Program The airway is smaller in children with OSA compared to controls The adenoid and tonsils are larger and the airway is most restricted where adenoid and tonsils overlap The volume of adenotonsillar tissues correlates with AHI Arens R, et al. Am J Respir CCM 2003;167: Arens R, et al. Am J Respir CCM 2001;164: Tonsillectomy/Adenoidectomy Surgical Outcomes The cure rate of T&A for OSA is 80% patients cumulative data from 11 studies RDI > 19 was more likely to have Post-op op RDI > 5 Shen et al.
