Background: Submucous cleft palate (SCP) is an uncommon form of isolated clefts. Its diagnosis is not difficult: a triangular pit due to a bone defect along the midline of the hard palate, a translucent zone of mucosal duplication in the middle part of the soft palate, providing insufficiency of its muscles and nasalization of the voice, a split uvula. In the compensated form of SCP and unclear clinical signs, diagnostic difficulties arise.
Objective: to establish clinical signs-markers of CT and MRI for the diagnosis of SCP.
Materials and methods: The study included patients with SCP treated by the Republican Clinical Hospital of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Tatarstan (n=21). All patients underwent CT or MRI.
Results: According to MRI data, a linear hypointense structure is visualized along the midline due to the intermittent position of the levator muscles of the soft palate. According to the CT data, 3 characteristic CT markers of SCP were identified: a triangular defect of the palate on 3D reconstruction of the skull, a defect of the palate in the frontal plane and shortening of the vomer, anterior displacement of the posterior nasal spine and an increase in the nasopharyngeal space in the sagittal projection. Patients begin to seek help in treating upper respiratory tract infections from an otolaryngologist much earlier. According to the data obtained in our study, significant differences were found when assessing the age of detection of SCP by an ENT doctor and other specialists (p = 0.015).
Conclusions: Otolaryngologists can encounter the manifestations and consequences of SCP and suspect the presence of a defect much earlier than other specialists. A promising direction in identifying SCP is the use of radiological diagnostic methods in routine practice. Timely detection of SCP will allow earlier initiation of rehabilitation measures to improve the quality of life and speech.
