[Effect of resection of adenoids and tonsillectomy on immune function in children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome].

Objective

To remove the immune function of children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome by resection of adenoids and tonsillar. Method: The fasting peripheral venous blood of children with OSAHS and healthy children were collected. The lymphocyte subsets, NK cells and immunoglobulin levels were compared between the two groups. The fasting blood samples of OSAHS children were collected again after 2d, 30d, 60d and 90d after operation. The changes of lymphocyte subsets, NK cells and immunoglobulin levels were observed after operation. Result: Before operation, at the 0.05 test level, it was not yet clear that the levels of IgG, IgM, IgA, NK, CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+ in OSAHS children were significantly different from those in the control group. The levels of IgA, CD3+ and CD4+ decreased significantly in children at 2d and OSAHS after operation, and IgG, IgM, IgA, NK, CD3+ and IgA continued to rise after 60d until ninetieth day after operation.

Conclusion

There is no statistical disorder of immune level in children with OSAHS compared with healthy children. The implementation of adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy in children with OSAHS, the level of immunity in 90 days can be restored to the preoperative level.
