Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Aim : The aim of present study was to evaluate the buccinator flap utilization in primary cleft palatoplasty on fistulation rate.

Methodology: forty six patients suffering from complete wide cleft palate were randomly divided into two equal groups: study group: the cleft palate defect was repaired by buccinator myomucosal flap whereas the control group patients' clefts were repaired by Bardach (two flap) palatoplasty during primary repair. All patients evaluated at 1 week,3,6 months interval to detect fistulation and measure palatal length by taking impressions and pouring casts to measure palatal length.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Aim : The aim of present study was to evaluate the buccinator flap utilization in primary cleft palatoplasty on fistulation rate. The goal was to predict the risk of velopharyngeal insufficiency and to decrease the fistiulation rate.

Methodology: forty six patients suffering from complete wide cleft palate were randomly divided into two equal groups: study group: the cleft palate defect was repaired by buccinator myomucosal flap whereas the control group patients' clefts were repaired by Bardach (two flap) palatoplasty during primary repair. All patients evaluated at 1 week,3,6 months interval to detect fistulation and measure palatal length by taking impressions and pouring casts to measure palatal length from anterior reference point(incisive foramen) to posterior reference point(uvula) and calculation of change in palatal length.
