[Effect of bariatric surgery on obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome with obesity in China].

Obesity has become one of the greatest public health concerns especially in China and obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is prevalent among morbidly obese patients. Metabolic and bariatric surgery has been proved to be a typical multidisciplinary strategy for obese patients with OSAHS but no related bariatric surgical guideline for OSAHS was found by now. In this paper, we extend to share our preliminary single-center experiences in the multidisciplinary treatment of severe obese with OSAHS.
