The treatment of persistent obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) after an adenotonsillectomy is a challenge, especially for children with Down syndrome. As otolaryngologists with sleep subcertification, we are keenly aware of the current limitations for both medical and secondary surgical treatment options for this cohort.
