Co-edited by a pediatric plastic surgeon and a speech scientist who are internationally-recognized leaders in the field, and with chapters written by well-known experts, the work is intended to fill the need for a comprehensive text to address the interdisciplinary assessment and management of cleft palate and velopharyngeal dysfunction.  Cleft Palate and Velopharyngeal Dysfunction will serve as a valuable resource for surgeons, speech pathologists and others that care for children and adults with cleft palate and velopharyngeal dysfunction.
