10 patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) have been treated with the new surgical procedure functional palatoraphy and modified genioplasty. 5 months after surgery 7 patients with an apnea hypopnea index under 10 were cured. Three therapy refractory patients were all overweight with a body mass index of more than 29 kg/m2. Excessively overweight patients should therefore not be operated. Following the selection criteria we introduced an effective new treatment method for OSAS.
10例阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征（OSAS）患者接受了新的手术治疗，即功能性腭成形术和改良颏成形术。术后5个月，7例呼吸暂停低通气指数低于10的患者治愈。3例治疗难治性患者均超重，体重指数超过29kg/m²。因此，超重过多的患者不应进行手术。根据选择标准，我们为OSAS引入了一种有效的新治疗方法。
