Palatopharyngeus Muscle - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
In classic palatorrhaphy, it is also common to obtain the nasal layer of the two-layer closure by the use of flaps of vomerine mucosa. This establishes an insufficient vertical dimension of the maxilla and, therefore, also of the nasal fossae; the net result favors a vertically deficient, retrodisplaced maxilla and overclosure of the mandible.

Feb 1, 1996 · Abstract. We have developed a new operation for the surgical treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea, which we called functional palatorrhaphy. This preserves the posterior border of the soft palate and allows a controlled repair of the aponeurosis of the soft palate muscle. We combine the palatorrhaphy with a standard or a modified chin ...

Results of the dynamic muscle sphincter operation in cleft palates
Jan 1, 1970 · Summary. Based on 11 years' experience, the best speech results have been obtained in patients with a cleft palate when the palate has first been closed with a minimal, atraumatic palatorrhaphy, followed six months later by the construction of a dynamic muscular sphincter at the site of the velopharyngeal incompetence.

Palatoplasty - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
The two-flap palatoplasty is a commonly used technique for cleft palate repair and involves incisions that extend to the alveolar portion of the cleft or to the incisive foramen (Fig. 8-28). The nasal cavity can be reconstructed by elevating vomer flaps, thereby creating four flaps used for reconstruction (not shown).
Occurrence of oronasal fistulas in operated cleft palate patients
Oct 1, 1988 · Fistulas at the junction between the hard and soft palates are difficult to close and often require complete palatorrhaphy. Materials and Methods Three hundred forty-six consecutive patients (189 males and 157 females) who had cleft palate repair during the period from January 1975 to December 1984 were included in this study.
