[Palatovelopharyngoplasty at the same time. Our experience in Philippines].
After many surgical charity missions in the same hospital in the Philippines, we have evaluated the child's phonation being operated of cleft palate. We had bad results so we decided to do in the same time an Orticochéa pharyngoplasty and the closure of the palate. These patients were evaluated too, the results were improved.
