Brief summary

The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the results of polidocanol sclerotherapy of pharynx for OSAS & SS,to reduce pharyngeal compliance.

Interventions

Polysomnography (PSG) and 1% Polidocanol--submucosous sclerosis in the part of pharyngx with 1% polidocanol injection The duration : about 4~5 years Each patient with OSAS will be followed up 2 years after treatment. The injection administered is during the treatment, the injection should be in the retrophargngeal submucosa and lateral pharyngeal bands and lateral pharyngeal submucosa and in front submucosa of soft palate. The injection is multi-point, and each point injection is 0.3~0.5ml, the
