Аннотация
AIM: To assess the efficacy of double opposing buccal flap in lengthening the soft palate for velopharyngeal insufficiency correction, and its potential complications in different age groups.
CASE SERIES: From March 2016 to June 2019, 50 patients (24 children, 12 adolescents and 14 adults) underwent palatal lengthening using double opposing buccinator myomucosal flaps. Postoperative complications were assessed by two surgeons and the speech outcomes were evaluated by two speech-language pathologists after assessing changes in the hypernasality and intelligibility using a scoring approach. Following the procedure, mild-to-moderate surgical complications were seen, mostly among the adults. There was a significant improvement in hypernasality and intelligibility in all the groups. None of the patients showed hyponasal speech postoperatively.
CONCLUSION: To conclude, the double opposing buccal flap technique is an effective and safe surgical treatment option for the management of velopharyngeal insufficiency in all age groups of patients.
