Velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) is a failure of the body's ability to temporarily close the communication between the nasal cavity and the mouth, because of an anatomic dysfunction of the soft palate or of the lateral or posterior wall of the pharynx. * The effect of such a dysfunction leads to functional problems with speech (hypernasality), eating (chewing and swallowing), and breathing. This gap can be treated surgically, although the choice of operational technique is still controversial. * The terms velopharyngeal "incompetence", "inadequacy" and "insufficiency" historically have often been used interchangeably, although they do not necessarily mean the same thing (sense distinctions can be made but sometimes are not). Velopharyngeal insufficiency includes any structural defect of the velum or pharyngeal walls at the level of the nasopharynx with insufficient tissue to accomplish closure, or there is some kind of mechanical interference with closure. It is important that the term insufficiency is used if it is an anatomical defect and not a neurological problem. * Velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) can be caused by a variety of disorders (structural, genetic, functional or acquired) and is very often associated with a cleft palate. Abnormal physiological separation of the oropharynx from the nasopharynx can lead to VPI and hypernasality. Velopharyngeal insufficiency also results if adenoidectomy is done on a patient with cleft palate or a submucous palate. |
