Management of sleep-disordered breathing in patients with syndromic hemifacial macrosomia.

In conclusion, patients with SHFM are at high risk of severe OSA at any age, underlining the importance of systematic sleep studies to diagnose and evaluate the severity of OSA. Individualized treatment should be privileged, based on a careful examination of the entire upper airway, taking in account potential associated risk factors. All patients with SHFM should be managed by a pediatric expert multidisciplinary medical/surgical team until the end of post pubertal growth.
