Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a disorder of recurrent hypoxia and daytime sleepiness caused by airway collapse during sleep.Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome is closely related to cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, arrhythmia, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease and heart failure.OSAHS plays an important role in promoting the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases.Currently, OSAHS as an important risk factor of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease is gradually paid attention to.This article reviews the pathogenesis of OSAHS induced coronary heart disease, the relationship between OSAHS and coronary artery stenosis, the adverse prognosis of OSAHS combined with coronary heart disease and the effect of continuous positive airway pressure on the prognosis of these patients. Key words: Sleep apnea, obstructive; Coronary artery disease; Coronary stenosis; Continuous positive airway pressure; Pathogenesis
