Single-layer Closure with Tongue Flap for Palatal Fistula in Cleft Palate Patients
BACKGROUND Tongue flap is a good option to close a complicated palatal fistula in cleft patients. Most surgeons advocate a double-layer closure to decrease the recurrence rates. In this study, we have reported our experience with a modified single-layer closure with tongue flap in cleft patients. METHOD All cases done by a single surgeon using this modified technique in a period of 10 years w...
متن کاملSuction Cup Induced Palatal Fistula: Surgical Closure by Palatal Rotational Flap
Construction of complete denture with adequate retention is a complex procedure. Use of suction cup in a maxillary denture is one of the techniques to improve retention. Palatal Suction cup, which provides high retention by inducing negative pressure on the mucosal surface, is not being recommended because of its pathological effect on the palatal tissues leading to palatal perforation. Surgica...
متن کاملInferior Turbinate Flap for Nasal-side Closure of Palatal Fistula in Cleft Patients: Technical Note
SUMMARY Residual palatal fistula after repair of palatal cleft is common. Repair of residual oronasal fistula is not always successful. Two-layer closure techniques that close these fistulas with soft tissue are a common practice. Turnover flaps are the most used flaps and often the sole method for nasal-side closure of fistula. Anteriorly based inferior turbinate flap can be used to provide so...
متن کاملClosure of a Tracheocutaneous Fistula With a Local Turnover Flap Combined With Pregrafted Palatal Mucosa: A Case Report
Objectives: A method of closing a large tracheocutaneous fistula by a combination of a palatal mucosal graft with a turnover adiposal flap is presented. Methods: Mucosa of the same size as the tracheal defect was harvested from the hard palate and grafted just caudal to the fistula. After the mucosal graft had taken, a local flap containing the mucosal graft was turned over the tracheal defect ...
متن کاملClosure of a pharyngocutaneous fistula using a sternomastoid muscle flap.
Presented here is a case of a pharyngocutaneous fistula which was closed primarily using a sternomastoid muscle flap, without skin coverage, thus obviating the need for a three-layered closure. Providing an intermediate cover was sufficient for the closure because the mucosal lining on the inside and the cutaneous covering on the outside grew using the muscle for support.
