Surgical planning for restoring velopharyngeal function in velocardiofacial syndrome
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology , 10/13/09
Ysunza A et al. – Tailor–made pharyngeal flaps seem to be the best option for restoring velopharyngeal function in cases of VPI in VCFS patients. The use of VNP and MVF is useful for planning the operations for VPI, and they are also useful for indicating the removal of tonsils in cases with high risk of obstruction. Moreover, VNP is also useful for preventing damage to the internal carotids which are usually displaced in VCFS patients.
