Abstract

Objective:

To explore an effective method to diagnose and treat the congenital recessive cleft palate.

Methods:

For the treatment of congenital recessive cleft palate, an operation was designed to recover the anatomic length and function mobility of the soft palate. The operation procedure includes incising vertically the midline mucous membrane of the soft palate, creating and pushing back the mucosal flap of the hard palate, making Z-plasty on the nasal mucosa, reconstructing the sling of the levator veli palatini muscle and repairing the palatal defects with the buccinator muscularis mucosae flap. 12 cases of congenital recessive cleft palate have treated with this method.

Results:

All of the 12 cases obtained good results. Their pronunciation improved obviously.

Conclusion:

The method is effective for diagnosis and treatment of congenital recessive palate, which is worthy of further application.

Cystic Fibrosis: Management

Cystic Fibrosis: Management

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder that predominantly affects individuals of Northern European descent, occurring at a rate of 1 in 3500. It is caused by a genetic mutation in a gene on chromosome 7, most commonly the ΔF508 mutation, that codes for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. This results in thicker mucus secretions and obstruction pathologies in multiple organs, including the lungs and sinuses.

Esophageal Strictures-II: Clinical Features and Management

Patients with esophageal strictures often experience a range of symptoms. Initially, they may have difficulty swallowing solid foods, which can progress to include liquids. Additional symptoms may involve chest pain or discomfort, regurgitating food and fluids, heartburn, unintentional weight loss, coughing or choking during meals, and hoarseness.
Healthcare providers should gather a comprehensive medical history and conduct a physical examination for diagnosis. If esophageal stricture is...
