This study evalutes the relationship between enuresis nocturna and upper airway obstruction caused by adenoton- sillar hypertrophy. Among 87 children who were operated on. 13 had enuresis nocturna. After i year follow up 8 patients were free of their complaints while 2 of them mentioned decrease in frequency of enuresis nocturna and 3 had no change in their com- - plaints.
