Study Design: Prospective clinical trial.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Setting:<\/jats:title>\n This study was conducted at the Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery Department, Zagazig University.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods:<\/jats:title>\n This prospective study was conducted on patients with snoring \u00b1 obstructive sleep apnea due to acquired postsurgical NPS of grade \u0399 and \u0399\u0399. New surgical repair was employed on the patients and the pre and postoperative results were statistically compared.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n The grade of NPS improved significantly postoperatively ( P = .00136) throughout a follow-up of 1 year. Postoperatively, there was statistically significant improvement of apnea hypopnea index ( P = .0005), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) of nasal obstruction ( P < .0001) and VAS of snoring ( P < .0001). Dysphagia showed early worsening, but it improved completely at 3 months postoperatively.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n The utilized novel procedure appears effective, low cost, and easily applicable, and it does not require implants, special tools, or suture materials. Furthermore, it gives excellent results, with negligible pain, and rapid recovery without significant complications.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Level of Evidence:<\/jats:title>\n 4.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/10556656211021702","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,22]],"date-time":"2021-06-22T05:15:48Z","timestamp":1624338948000},"page":"774-778","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Modified Z-Palatoplasty for Correction of Acquired Nasopharyngeal Stenosis Following Palatal Surgery: A Case Series"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"59","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6822-8357","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohamed","family":"Eesa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Zagazig University, Zagazig, Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ehsan","family":"Hendawy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Zagazig University, Zagazig, Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mohammad Waheed","family":"El-Anwar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Zagazig University, Zagazig, Egypt"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph17062048"},{"key":"bibr2-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otohns.2004.02.051"},{"key":"bibr3-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.124.2.163"},{"key":"bibr4-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1946.00680060280002"},{"key":"bibr5-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/otot.2002.127286"},{"key":"bibr6-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1927.00610010009001"},{"key":"bibr7-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.mlg.0000154748.01680.7d"},{"key":"bibr8-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2500\/105065800782102708"},{"issue":"1","key":"bibr9-10556656211021702","first-page":"1","volume":"67","author":"Viera MBM","year":"2001","journal-title":"Braz J Otolaryngol"},{"key":"bibr10-10556656211021702","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SAP.0b013e3181a73009"}],"container-title":["The Cleft Palate Craniofacial Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/10556656211021702","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/10556656211021702","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/10556656211021702","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T16:21:37Z","timestamp":1777393297000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/10556656211021702"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,22]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/10556656211021702"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/10556656211021702","relation":{},"ISSN":["1055-6656","1545-1569"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1055-6656","type":"print"},{"value":"1545-1569","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,22]]}}}
