A Comprehensive Guide to the Surgical Management of VPI in Children

Velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) is a condition that occurs when the velopharyngeal valve does not close properly, allowing air to escape through the nose during speech. This can lead to a variety of speech problems, including hypernasality, nasal emission, and articulation errors.

Surgery is the most common treatment for VPI. The goal of surgery is to create a more competent velopharyngeal valve that will allow for normal speech production. There are a variety of different surgical techniques that can be used to treat VPI, and the choice of technique will depend on the individual patient's needs.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the surgical management of VPI in children. The book covers all aspects of VPI surgery, from preoperative evaluation and planning to postoperative care and follow-up. The book is written by a team of leading experts in the field of VPI surgery, and it is illustrated with numerous high-quality images.
