pubmed:abstractText |
The results of clinical and radiographic assessment of palate re-repair (by a single operator) in 32 patients are presented. This has shown that radical muscle correction as a secondary procedure (following limited or no muscle correction in primary repair) has produced measurable improvement in velar function and should be considered as the first option in many patients with velopharyngeal incompetence. The results also support the concept of muscle dissection and retropositioning in primary cleft palate repair.
