| Popis: | Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of microdebrider adenoidectomy on sleep-disordered breathing among pediatric patients with OSA. Methods: In the microdebrider group (Group I), there were 30 Japanese OSA patients consisting of 26 boys and 4 girls. For comparison, we had 15 children (13 boys and 2 girls) who underwent classical adenoidectomy (Group II). Patients in Group I were selected from a pool of 95 pediatric Japanese OSA patients and were matched by age, preoperative AHI, and Kaup index with those in Group II. Parameters such as the amount of residual adenoid tissue, bleeding, duration of the procedure, and sleep-related metrics were compared between the two groups. Results: A significant improvement in postoperative AHI was observed in Group I (p |
