The purposes of the study are: (1) to establish if cephalometry and upper airway examination may provide tools for detecting facioscapulohumeral (FSHD) patients at risk for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS); and (2) to correlate cephalometry and otorhinolaryngologic evaluation with clinical and polysomnographic features of FHSD patients with OSAS.

Abstract
The purposes of the study are: (1) to establish if cephalometry and upper airway examination may provide tools for detecting facioscapulohumeral (FSHD) patients at risk for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS); and (2) to correlate cephalometry and otorhinolaryngologic evaluation with clinical and polysomnographic features of FHSD patients with OSAS.
