Buccinator Myomucosal Flap With Furlow Palatoplasty and VPI

November 23, 2022 updated by: Shaimaa Mohsen, Fayoum University

Anatomical Restoration Cleft Palate Technique (ARC) for Secondary Velopharyngeal Incompetence Post Cleft Palate Repair

Nasopharyngoscopic examination of the 20 patients with secondary VPI following 2 flap palatoplasty will be done for visualization of the velopharyngeal port, allowing assessment of the pattern and grade of velopharyngeal closure during speech and the presence or absence of a velopharyngeal gap and after VPI repair by Buccinator myomucosal flap with Furlow palatoplasty
