Acquiring a better comprehension of obstructive sleep apnea physiopathology can contribute to improving patient selection for surgical treatments. We hypothesize that maxillary transverse deficiency restricts the space available for the tongue, leading to upper airway obstruction during sleep. Our primary hypothesis was that maxillary transverse deficiency increases the prevalence of tongue collapse during drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE). The secondary hypothesis was that maxillary transverse deficiency will also increase the prevalence of circumferential collapse at the velopharynx. The exploratory hypothesis was that maxillary transverse deficiency is associated with increased obstructive sleep apnea severity. The objectives of this study were to correlate maxillary morphometric measurements with (1) the anatomic level of obstruction during DISE and (2) the apnea-hypopnea index on polysomnography.

Correlation between the transverse dimension of the maxilla, upper airway obstructive site and OSA severity
