Overview
The cause of hyperrhiophonia or velopharyngeal insufficiency was described a long time ago. It still causes examination problems in minimal cleft palate defects, after operation of cleft palate, effects of pharyngeal and palatal tonsils and, especially, in differentiation of functional and organic causes. The evaluation of velopharyngeal occlusion from oral cavity is not optimal for the necessary evaluation of articulation and the type of occlusion (valve type, sphincter type, circular, with Passavant’s bar, velotonsillar, velo adenoid). One of methods use all over the world is the nasal endoscopy examination of velo pharyngeal occlusion. Tne aim of this communication is to summarize the present knowledge of application of the method and introduction practical examples.
Key words:
nasal pharyngoscopy, velopharyngeal insufficiency, hyperrhinophonia, cleaft palate.
