Abstract

Background: Adenotonsillar hyperplasia causes upper airway obstruction leading to obstructive sleep apnea. The aim of this search was to investigate the prevalence of NOCTURNAL ENURESIS (NE) in children diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the rate of resolution or improvement in enuresis following surgery for relief of adenotonsillar.Methods: All children aged 3-15 years who underwent ADENOTONSILLECTOMY were included (n=404).The study was carried out from March 2005 and March 2006 in Ahvaz Imam Khomeini Hospital. A questionnaire regarding voiding problems, including NOCTURNAL ENURESIS (NE) and voids per day was filled out preoperatively as well as postoperatively by the patients and their parents. Those patients with a positive history of both NE and Adenotonsillar hypertrophy along with OSA were surveyed to determine whether there was no change in enuresis, decreased enuresis, or no enuresis postoperatively.Results: A total of 404 children who had undergone tonsillectomy or ADENOTONSILLECTOMY were studied and data regarding enuresis available in their charts. A number of 92 of these 404 (22.77%) children had a positive history of enuresis. Of the 92 children with a positive history, 57 (61.95%) were female, and 35 (38.05%) were male. All 92 children with enuresis underwent ADENOTONSILLECTOMY. Postoperatively, 53 patients (57.6%) had complete resolution of enuresis, 25 (27.17%) had significant improvement and 14 (15.21%) showed no change. A Chi-square test showed a statistically significant difference among the groups (P<0.001).Conclusions: NOCTURNAL ENURESIS is common among children with upper airway obstruction. ADENOTONSILLECTOMY has a favorable therapeutic effect on enuresis in children with obstructive sleep apnea due to adenotonsillar hyperplasia postoperatively.
