// This study evaluated tonsil surgery effectiveness for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children with comorbidities. Reviewing 33 cases, it found a significant reduction in apnea severity after surgery, with median OAHI dropping from 17.7 to 1.9. Both tonsillotomy and tonsillectomy produced similar improvements, and even children with small tonsils showed marked benefit. Additionally, 40% of children on ventilatory support post-surgery were able to stop using it.
