Genetics of Cleft Palate and Velopharyngeal Insufficiency
Velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) can occur in the setting of an unrepaired or repaired cleft lip and palate. The rate of VPI has been documented as high as 33% in some studies with higher rates of recurrences following surgery associated with genetic syndromes such as 22q11.2 deletions. The primary cause of VPI in these groups is still identified as the anatomic abnormalities of the velum. In...

متن کاملWe can predict postpalatoplasty velopharyngeal insufficiency in cleft palate patients.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To find an anatomical measurement of the cleft palate (or a calculated parameter) that predicts the occurrence of velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) after palatal cleft repair. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS Charts were reviewed from cleft palate patients who underwent palatoplasty by the Von Langenbeck technique for isolated cleft palate or Bardach t...
متن کاملFurlow palatoplasty for previously repaired cleft palate with velopharyngeal insufficiency.
OBJECTIVE Velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) is a common complication after cleft palate repair, it may be due to lack of levator sling reconstruction and/or palatal shortening. Furlow palatoplasty has the advantages of retro-positioning of levator palati muscles and palatal lengthening. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of Furlow palatoplasty in the treatment of VPI in patients ...
متن کاملCurrent Controversies in Diagnosis and Management of Cleft Palate and Velopharyngeal Insufficiency
BACKGROUND One of the most controversial topics concerning cleft palate is the diagnosis and treatment of velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI). OBJECTIVE This paper reviews current genetic aspects of cleft palate, imaging diagnosis of VPI, the planning of operations for restoring velopharyngeal function during speech, and strategies for speech pathology treatment of articulation disorders in pa...
