Conference summary
The respiratory sleep pathology in children is an increasingly prevalent entity and its implications are much more global than just the affection of rest. Its etiologies are multiple and only a multidisciplinary approach will respond to this pathology.
The main otorhinolaryngology etiologies with implication in sleep quality, as well as its main anatomical consequences on facial growth will be addressed. A review of the medical and surgical otorhinolaryngology therapeutics and approaches in this pathology will be made.
