This video demonstrates the technique of genioglossus advancement and hyoid suspension for a patient suffering from obstructive sleep apnea. This technique is preferred when one can accurately localize the site of ‘obstruction’. The patient demonstrated here had a hypoplastic maxilla and a reduced retroglossal space.
