“…The nasoendoscopic findings were analyzed using an adaptation of the protocols proposed in the literature (20,21) . These protocols are models of semiquantitative measures that were developed to standardize the collection of information on the functioning of the VPM through nasoendoscopy.…”

“…When there was no movement of velopharyngeal structures (where the image at rest is equal to the image of the maximum displacement), they should measure the gap size at 100%. The reference measures adopted for this item were subdivided on a six-point adapted scale (20,21) : 0%, VP closure; 10%, VP gap with air bubble; 25%, small For statistical analysis, the results for each aspect evaluated among patients who underwent surgery through the F technique and those who underwent surgery through the vL technique were compared using Fisher's statistical test for movement of the soft palate and of the lateral walls, maximum displacement of the soft palate and posterior wall, and type of VP gap. The χ 2 -test was applied to the movement of the posterior pharyngeal wall, maximum displacement of the lateral pharyngeal wall, and Passavant´s pad.…”

“…It complements the clinical evaluation and allows the team to define the best approach to be used. It also allows the realization of displacement measurements of each velopharyngeal structure and to estimate, although subjectively, the size and type of velopharyngeal gap (19)(20)(21) .…”

PURPOSE: To compare the nasoendoscopic findings related to the velopharyngeal gap among patients with cleft palate who underwent the Furlow (F) technique and those who underwent the von Langenbeck (vL) technique for primary palatal surgery, who remained with velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI).METHODS: The analyzed data were retrieved from the institution's data of recordings of nasoendoscopic exams. The sample comprised 70 recorded nasoendoscopic exams obtained from 22 patients who underwent the F technique and from 48 who underwent the vL technique during primary palatoplasty, who remained with VPI after surgery and were submitted to nasoendoscopy, between the ages of 5 and 15 years (mean age: 8 years), for definition of the best treatment for VPI. The images were edited into a DVD in a randomized sequence to be assessed by three experienced speech language pathologists regarding displacement and excursion of the soft palate; displacement and excursion of lateral pharyngeal's walls; displacement and excursion of the posterior pharyngeal's wall; and presence of the Passavant ridge and size and type of velopharyngeal gap.RESULTS: The results of the comparison of measurements between F and vL groups were not statistically significant.CONCLUSION: The surgical technique used in primary palatoplasty was not relevant to determine the difference in the size of the velopharyngeal gap for patients who maintained VPI.
