Abstract:
Instead of the general use of a catheter attached to the uvula or of catheters passed through the nasal cavity to the mouth for elevation of soft palate, the authors describe a new technique utilizing two rolled sponges producing maximum elevation of soft palate and good perioral cosmetic results for transoral exposure of C1 and C2.
