dc.description.abstractObjectives: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of corrective nasal surgeries on snoring in patients diagnosed as simple snorers.Methods: Seventeen patients who were presented with the complaint of snoring as suggested by their partners and had apnea hypopnea index less than 5 in polysomnography, and were operated on due to nasal pathology were included in the study. Patients were evaluated prior to surgery and 3 months after surgery with body mass index, snoring complaints inventory and visual analog scala (VAS) for symptoms of snoring and apnea, nasal obstruction and post-operative satisfaction.Results: In the post-operative assessment, significant improvement was observed in the nasal passage compared to pre-operative level. This finding was approved subjectively on survey study as increase of nasal passage in 71% of the patients. Decrease in snoring was found in 65% of the patients. VAS scores revealed a significant reduction in the loudness of the snoring in the post-operative period.Conclusion: Correction of the nasal pathology leads to reduction in the frequency and loudness of the snoring. Consequently, nasal pathologies should definitely be treated in patients with snoring. However, it should be borne in mind that these diseases are multifactorial and multi-leveled. Thus, successful results may not be obtained in all of the patients and they should be counseled accordingly.
