Rhinopharyngeal autologous fat injection for treatment of velopharyngeal insufficiency in patients with cleft palate

, 2015
Patients with cleft palate are prone to velopharyngeal insufficiency. In minor cases or when hypernasal speech does not resolve after velopharyngoplasty, an augmentation pharyngoplasty with autologous fat can be proposed.
