- The study aimed to evaluate speech outcomes and the presence of palatal fistulas in cleft patients using two surgical techniques: the von Langenbeck repair and the Furlow procedure.
- The trial utilized a factorial design, randomizing participants into 8 groups based on the type of lip and palatal repair, plus the timing of surgery.
- Results indicated that the Furlow procedure improved speech-related velopharyngeal function, but it had a higher rate of palatal fistula occurrence, particularly in patients with wider clefts and when specific surgical techniques were not applied.
