Genioplasty for genioglossus muscle advancement in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome and mandibular retrognathia - PubMed

genioplasty for genioglossus advancement seemed to reduce OSAHS signs, thus, it can be considered as an option for the surgical treatment of patients with hypopharynx obstruction. Data collected supports this surgical procedure as an option in patients with OSAHS and mandibular retrognathia.
