The 2-flap palatoplasty is a single-stage surgical procedure described more than 35 years ago. There are few reports in the literature describing longitudinal speech results for either a single surgeon or a single surgical technique. This paper presents speech outcomes spanning the 28 years that Dr. Kenneth E. Salyer has been performing the 2-flap palatoplasty.

Speech Outcome Audit for Cleft Lip and Palate Patient Population Correlated With Veau Cleft Type, Surgical Repair Technique, and Patient Age.
J Craniofac Surg
October 2024
Institute of Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery, SOBRAPAR Hospital.
Objective: The objective of this study is to determine speech outcome differences for specific palate repair techniques and correlate these data with patient age at the time of operation.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on a cohort of consecutive nonsyndromic patients who underwent cleft lip and/or palate repair at the authors' hospital between 2010 and 2020. Only those patients who participated in at least 4 years of follow-up accompanied by audio-video recording were included.
Indications for Furlow Double-Opposing Z-Plasty in Patients with Velopharyngeal Insufficiency following 2-Flap Palatoplasty.

From the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, School of Medicine, Kyungpook National University.
Background: Various surgical methods have been developed for treating velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI); however, the choice of surgical treatment is controversial. The pharyngeal flap, which is commonly used, has a high success rate but frequently leads to airway complications. Furlow double-opposing Z-plasty (DOZ) does not deform the velopharyngeal port; therefore, it is expected to show good speech outcomes while reducing airway complications if an appropriate indication is noted.

Animals: 7 client-owned dogs.
Methods: The hard palate defect was closed with medially positioned flaps (Von Langenbeck technique) or pedicle flaps (2-flap palatoplasty) and a membrane composed of autologous auricular cartilage from the pinna or allogenous fascia lata underlying the mucoperiosteal flaps.
Modified Furlow Palatoplasty Using Small Double-Opposing Z-Plasty: Long-Term Outcome and Comparison with 2-Flap Palatoplasty.
Plast Reconstr Surg
December 2024
From the Departments of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
Background: Postpalatoplasty velopharyngeal function needs to be evaluated through long-term follow-up, but such reports are limited in the literature, and there has been no consensus as to which surgical technique yields optimal velopharyngeal function with minimum complication rate. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcome of the modified Furlow palatoplasty using small double-opposing Z-plasty (small-DOZ).
Methods: A retrospective review was conducted of consecutive patients who underwent palatoplasty performed by the senior author (L.
Standard of Care for Patients With Cleft Lip and Palate in India-A Questionnaire-Based Study.

A national survey of cleft teams was undertaken to evaluate the current standard of care for patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP) in India as a part of Cleft Care India study. This was a cross-sectional questionnaire-based study. Cleft teams across India attending the 19th Annual Conference of the Indian Society of Cleft Lip and Palate were invited to complete the questionnaire.
