Epiglottis Collapse in Individuals With Obstructive Sleep Apnea
ABSTRACT Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder characterized by repeated upper airway collapse during sleep. The epiglottis, often overlooked in conventional assessments, has emerged as a site of significant obstruction in OSA.

Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy in Children Predicts OSA Severity
ABSTRACT Background While adenotonsillectomy (AT) is first line for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), treatment failure is common. Drug‐induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) provides dynamic airway assessment, but its role in predicting OSA severity requires clarification. This study correlates DISE findings with polysomnographic severity. Objective To

ABSTRACT Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) frequently results from multilevel upper airway obstruction involving the palate, lateral walls, and tongue base. Among various techniques, endoscope‐guided coblation for tongue base reduction (TBR) provides precise resection with excellent hemostasis and minimal morbidity.
