Abstrakt: While the association of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with an increased cardiovascular risk (CVR) in the adult population is well known, there is insufficient evidence to affirm something similar in the pediatric population. On the other hand, adenotonsillectomy has been shown to be an effective treatment. Our objective was to evaluate the association of sleep respiratory disorders in children with increased CVR and the impact of adenotonsillectomy in the literature. To this aim, a literature search was conducted, between 2002 to the present. After carrying out a systematic review, the following results were provided: thoracic echocardiography after surgery found improvements in terms of cardiac function and structure; blood pressure (BP) measurement, verified a tendency to higher BP values in the OSA pediatric population, which improved after surgery; different biomarkers of CVR, were increased in OSA patients and improved after treatment and finally; some studies found endothelial dysfunction in pediatric OSA, a measurement of vascular system function, was reversible with adenotonsillectomy. Increases in BP parameters, biological markers related to CVR and alterations in cardiac function structure, have been reported in pediatric patients with OSA. At least, some of these parameters would be reversible after adenotonsillectomy, reflecting a possible reduction in CVR.
