Hypernasality in the Presence of “Adequate” Velopharyngeal Closure

Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal, 1993
In some instances, hypernasality occurs despite an instrumental assessment of “adequate” velopharyngeal closure. The pressure-flow technique was used to assess the timing characteristics associated with velopharyngeal closure in 11 such subjects. The group's performance was compared to the aerodynamic characteristics of two other subject groups.

Nasopharyngoscopic Evaluation of Velopharyngeal Closure During Speech

open access: yesJournal of Craniofacial Surgery
Definitive oronasal separation through closure of the velopharyngeal (VP) sphincter is necessary for the development of normal speech and feeding. Individuals with velopharyngeal incompetence or insufficiency often exhibit hypernasal speech, poor speech intelligibility, and nasal regurgitation.

Velopharyngeal Closure and the Longus Capitis Muscle

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1996
The dynamic mechanism of velopharyngeal function not only in normal individuals but also in patients with velopharyngeal insufficiency, which is mainly related to cleft palate, has been the subject of considerable interest and controversy. Recently, in order to clarify velopharyngeal movement in the valvular action on phonation we examined dynamic MR ...
