Long‐Term Results of UPPP and Coblation Channeling of the Tongue for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the long‐term surgical outcomes of combined uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) and coblation channeling of the tongue (CCT) for moderate‐to‐severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods The study enrolled patients with moderate‐to‐severe OSA who underwent treatment with UPPP plus CCT and had a minimal follow‐up of 2 years ...

Cephalometrically analysis of the convexity angle [PDF]
The convexity angle of facial bone structures ( N-A: A-Pg) expresses the sagittal protrusion of the maxillary part of the face compared to facial profile (the convex or concave face).The convexity angle is defined as the angle colligated by the lines N-A
