Abstract
SDB is commonly seen in BBS. These patients should be routinely screened for OSA and if present, a polysomnogram should be obtained. Based on patient characteristics, the failure rate of primary surgical intervention, namely adenotonsillectomy, is expected to be high. Further investigation into the role of ancillary diagnostic testing is still needed.
