Conclusions: Based our results, sleep apnea in CM-1 patients may be obstructive, central, or mixed and is likely multifactorial. A multi-disciplinary approach to management of these patients is important including ne urosurgery, otolaryngology, and sleep medicine. Future prospective studies will lend further insight into this condition and its management.
