Combination lingual tonsillectomy and epiglottopexy in indicated patients has a high rate of success in this single-institutional study without new dysphagia in this population. These procedures are amenable to a combination surgery in appropriately selected patients determined by sleep state endoscopy in the setting of SDB evaluated with drug-induced sleep endoscopy.
