“…In contrast, the superior pedicle pharyngeal flap, sphincter pharyngoplasty, posterior wall augmentation, and a new surgical repair of the palate are procedures for the surgical treatment of VPI 11 . These are the most widely used methods and the first option for patients, their parents, and the rehabilitation team because they are considered a more natural and definitive way as it is performed with tissues from the regions of the velopharynx 12 …”

“…11 These are the most widely used methods and the first option for patients, their parents, and the rehabilitation team because they are considered a more natural and definitive way as it is performed with tissues from the regions of the velopharynx. 12 In superior pedicle pharyngeal flap surgery, the surgeon creates a tissue bridge that connects the posterior wall of the pharynx with the soft palate, leaving two portals on each side of the nasopharynx to allow airflow during breathing and phonation of nasal sounds. In complications of the pharyngeal flap in the upper airway, postoperative hyponasality and symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea 13 have been reported.…”

Interdisciplinary teamwork is essential for the rehabilitation of patients with cleft lip and palate, and therefore, the application of treatment techniques for velopharyngeal insufficiency, both surgical and prosthetic, depends on the experience of each rehabilitation team. For this reason, the following study consisting of the cooperation between interdisciplinary cleft lip and palate teams from Chile and Argentina, which succeeded in correcting velopharyngeal insufficiency in an adolescent, initially using a pharyngeal bulb prosthesis and speech therapy, and finally through pharyngeal flap surgery, is presented. This shows that international cooperation is a valuable tool for training, implementation, and follow-up of different treatment techniques for teams in formation.

This study aimed to determine whether significant differences in nasalance can be detected through sentence reading among Chilean Spanish speakers with balanced resonance and those simulating hypernasality, hyponasality, or mixed resonance. The study recruited 30 Chilean participants (15 men and 15 women), with a mean age of 23 years, without velopharyngeal dysfunction. Participants were trained to simulate different types of resonance disorders, using 15 sentences classified into 3 categories: high-pressure oral consonants, low-pressure oral consonants, and nasal consonants. Nasalance was measured with a nasometric assessment using a nasometer 6450 in 4 resonance conditions: balanced, hypernasality, hyponasality, and mixed resonance. Repeated-measures ANOVA statistical analyses and Tukey post hoc tests were applied. The results showed significant differences in nasalance scores between balanced resonance and simulated hypernasality, hyponasality, and mixed resonance. Nasalance values were comparable to those reported in previous studies with Spanish speakers. Reading the sentences in question allows us to identify significant differences in nasalance between subjects with balanced resonance and simulated hypernasality, hyponasality, and mixed resonance. Future studies should investigate these sentences in real patients and use a blind randomized methodology to validate auditory-perceptual evaluation and nasometry.
