Multidisciplinary Velopharyngeal Dysfunction Evaluation Helps Detect Non-classic Cases of 22q11.2 Deletion.

Objective: To explore the role of multidisciplinary velopharyngeal dysfunction (VPD) assessment in diagnosing 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q) in children.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Comparative Study of Pharyngeal Flap Outcomes between Children with 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome and Nonsyndromic Cleft Lip and Palate.

Background: Management of velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome is challenging. The authors compared pharyngeal flap outcomes in children with 22q11.
