One-Stage Multilevel Surgery for Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
We report the results of one-stage multilevel upper airway surgery for patients who could not tolerate continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Patients treated with multilevel surgery at a University Hospital in 2015–2019 were identified from a prospectively maintained database. The inclusion cr...
