| Video Discription | The meeting focused on the critical aspects of tongue-based surgery for severe obstructive sleep apnea, including diagnosis, surgical techniques, and postoperative care. • The meeting discusses the importance of tongue-based surgery for severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) when CPAP fails. • Presentations in the OSA masterclass series will resume every alternate week. • Proper diagnosis of tongue base collapse requires sleep endoscopy, not just physical examination. • BMI and AHI do not reliably predict the need for tongue-based surgery in OSA patients. • Surgical outcomes vary significantly based on the type of tongue base collapse (muscular vs. lymphoid). • Understanding surgical techniques and approaches is critical for successful tongue-based surgery outcomes. • Discussed the importance of removing lymphoid tissues for effective tongue-based surgery. • Emphasized careful layer-by-layer dissection to avoid complications during surgery. • Highlighted the significance of coagulating vessels to prevent excessive bleeding. • Noted that reaching the median glossopharyngeal ligament is crucial for successful outcomes. • Mentioned the use of robotic assistance for enhanced precision in tongue base surgeries. • Recommended postoperative monitoring to manage potential bleeding complications effectively. • Discussed various pain management strategies, including patches and medications for post-operative care. • Explained the surgical approach for pediatric patients with enlarged lymphoid tissue, emphasizing staging when necessary. • Addressed indications for robotic surgery versus traditional methods, highlighting patient-specific considerations and outcomes.
