Popis: The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on the polysomnographic parameters related to OSAS. We conducted this 3-year prospective cohort study in a tertiary care center between December 2016 and December 2019. In total, we enrolled 31 patients with severe obesity who underwent full-night polysomnography (PSG) before LSG. Later, the patients were re-evaluated by full-night PSG 12 months after the surgery. The mean age of the patients was 44.1 ± 9.6 years. The mean body mass index (BMI) decreased significantly from a mean value of 49.8 ± 8.5 kg/m2 at baseline to 33.2 ± 8.2 kg/m2 and a percent BMI (%BMI) reduction of 33.8 ± 10.4% and a percent total weight loss (%TWL) of 35.4 ± 10.8% was achieved on the same day of the postsurgical PSG (p
