Abstract

Background and Objectives: SNORING is a common symptom or disorder involving 19% of population. SNORING occurs mainly at velopharyngeal area. It belongs to a spectrum of sleep disorders which varies from habitual SNORING to sleep apnea syndrome. This study presents a simple surgical technique for the relief of SNORING.Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 8 patients with a chief complaint of SNORING. Data consisting history, physical and anatomic characteristics were obtained through a questionnaire. The results of operation were recorded as complete, significant, minor and non recovery at a period of 2 months follow-up. Diagnosis and follow-ups were done on a clinical basis. In this technique mucosal soft palate was resected elliptically and the consequent defect repaired with some sutures. Results: in 62.5% of patients complete or significant recovery occured. The results in patients with low BMIs were better. The postoperative complications were pain (%100) and uvular protrution (25%).Conclusion: This is a simple and cost-effective technique which lacks important complications. It’s successful results are at the limit of other procedures such as laser, cautery assisted and snare PALATOPLASTY.
