[Certain specific features of the structure and vegetative innervation of the soft palate in patients with nasal obstruction and snoring].

Fifty patients presenting with night snore were examined for neck anthropometry, evaluation of the state of nasal cavity and vegetative homeostasis. Fourteen patients were given combined surgical treatment including endonasal functional operation and radiofrequency-assisted uvuloplasty. Concomitant biopsy provided materials for histochemical characteristic of nerve structures in the soft palatal tissue.
