ABSTRACTThe results of patients operated on by Nepal Cleft Lip and Palate Association (NECLAPA) surgeons for congenital macrostomia were prospectively studied between January 2000 and December 2002. There were four males and three females with a median age of 10 years. Three had an associated branchial arch syndrome. In all patients an overlapping repair of orbicularis oris was done. Six patients had a straight line closure with excellent cosmetic results and one a Z-plasty with a more obvious scar. All had a normal appearing commissure. Overlapping orbicularis repair with straight line skin closure for this rare congenital anomaly is recommended.

Lateral proboscis is a rare congenital anomaly. Lateral proboscis is a rare craniofacial malformation characterized by a rudimentary tubular, nose-like structure occurring in association with a wide spectrum of other anomalies. We presented a seven-month-old girl’s lateral proboscis, cleft lip, and palate. Proboscis was excised by an elliptical incision, and the cleft was repaired at the same surgery.

(WHO meetings on International Collaborative Research on Craniofacial Anomalies).One of the most common congenital anomaly we come across is the Cleft Lip and palate where affected children suffer from range of functional as well as aesthetic problems. Cleft lip and palate is a multifunctional disease associated with environmental factors. Management of cleft is a complex procedure and demands co-operation among experts from different fields. Clinical treatment procedure extends from beginning of birth, to achieving skeletal maturity effectively.

Background: Cleft lip and palate is a common congenital anomaly affecting approximately 1 in 700 live births in south Asia. It is often associated with syndromes and other malformations but the exact incidence of these in Asians is not known. The present study was carried out to determine the association of other congenital anomalies in children with cleft.Methods: The study was carried out in the patients attending the Cleft centre of our Hospital. They were examined for other major external congenital malformations and syndrome association.  Where ever relevant, appropriate investigations were done.Results: Of the total of 2367 children examined, 262 (11.06%) had congenital malformations.  Among the non-syndromic children, 9% had associated malformations.  The commonest was congenital heart disease (1.4%) following by genitourinary and skeletal anomalies.  The highest number of anomalies was seen in patients with cleft palate alone (24.89%). 1.4% patients had identifiable syndromes.Conclusions: The study emphasizes the need for a thorough examination of all children with cleft.  The overall lower incidence of syndromic clefts and associated anomalies in present study suggests that other etiological factors may be involved in our country.

Background: Social media has become a source of medical information. Cleft lip and palate is a visible congenital anomaly. The aim of the study was to analyze Instagram® posts on the topic of cleft lip. Methods: Instagram® posts with “#cleftlip” from March 2014–March 2017 were accessed. Separate lists of expressions (hashtags, meaningful words, words with emojis or emojis alone) were prepared for primary posts and for replies. Thirty expressions statistically most frequent in primary versus secondary posts and 30 in secondary versus primary posts were identified (Group 1) as well as 30 English words or hashtags (Group 2), non-English words or hashtags (Group 3) and emojis (Group 4). The frequencies of expressions were compared (Z-test for the difference of two population proportions). Results: There were 34,129 posts, (5427 primary posts and 28,702 replies), containing 62,163 expressions, (35,004 in primary posts). The occurrence of all expressions was 454,162, (225,418 in primary posts and 228,744 in replies). Posts with positive expressions such as “beautiful”, “love”, “cute”, “great”, “awesome” occurred more often than these with negative ones. In replies all emojis were positive. Conclusions: Numerous Instagram® posts referring to cleft lip are published and do provoke discussion. People express their solidarity and sympathize with persons affected by cleft.

AbstractThe aim of this prospective study is to determine the incidences of cleft lip and palate in Karnataka & Kerala population. It also highlights a part of embryological aspect and theories that help to correlate and understand the incidence of the congenital anomaly. This prospective study were conducted in 1000 patients having cleft lip and palate deformities and classified, incidences and types of patterns of occurrences were statistically analysed. It was observed that incidences of Cleft lip and palate is more common in males were 51.9% and that of Cleft palate is more prevelant in females were - 48.1%

✓ A case of sphenoethmoidal meningoencephalocele associated with agenesis of the corpus callosum and median cleft lip and palate in a baby boy is reported. Two other cases have been reported previously presenting exactly the same findings. It is possible that these malformations constitute a distinct type of congenital anomaly.

Cleft lip and palate is the most common congenital anomaly. Its association with hematologic disorders is rarely reported. Cyclic neutropenia is a rare blood disorder that may occur spontaneously or has a genetic predisposition. Periodicity/recurrence of cyclic neutropenia has a cyclical pattern reoccurring in multiples of 7 days, usually at 21- or 28-day intervals between attacks, with the patient being fairly asymptomatic. There is no case in the literature that has reported the presence of cyclic neutropenia in cleft patients. We report a case of cleft patient associated with Cyclic\ neutropenia\. The clinical features, diagnosis, and course of management are described.

Fissura labial e/ou palatina é a forma congênita mais frequente anomalia ocorrendo na região craniofacial, as quais são defeitos orofaciais inatos não sindrômicos, que incluem uma variedade de doenças que afetam a face e a cavidade bucal. O objetivo neste estudo foi realizar um artigo técnico visando esclarecer os procedimentos restauradores e cuidados com a saúde bucal em indivíduos com fissura lábio-palatina. Crianças com fissura lábio-palatina apresentam significativo risco de cárie nos incisivos decíduos, além disso, têm mais superfícies cariadas/restauradas na dentição decídua do que crianças não fissuradas. Assim, deve-se promover o ensinamento de técnicas de higiene bucal para controle desta. Procedimentos restauradores, assim como tratamentos endodônticos são realizados em pacientes com fissura lábio-palatina assim como em pacientes sem fissuras. Para realização dos tratamentos dentários convencionais nas crianças com fissura não tratadas cirurgicamente, o uso de isolamento absoluto tem uma especial importância, pois previne o desconforto causado pelo fluxo constante de água dos instrumentos rotativos e pela presença de resíduos de materiais que podem entrar nas vias aéreas e serem aspirados e/ou deglutidos. Portanto, procedimentos restauradores devem ser realizados em indivíduos com fissura lábio-palatina similarmente a indivíduos que não tenham fissura, entretanto, cuidados tais como isolamento absoluto devem ser tomados e a prevenção é fator fundamental nestes indivíduos.   Palavras-chaves: Fenda Labial.

The objective of this study was to carry out a technical article to clarify the restorative procedures and oral health care in individuals with cleft lip and palate. Children with cleft lip and palate have a significant risk of caries in the primary incisors, in addition, they have more decayed/restored surfaces in the primary dentition than non-cleft children. Thus, the teaching of oral hygiene techniques to control it should be promoted. Restorative procedures, as well as endodontic treatments are performed in patients with cleft lip and palate as well as in patients without clefts. To perform conventional dental treatments on children with cleft not treated surgically, the use of absolute isolation is of special importance, as it prevents discomfort caused by the constant water flow from rotating instruments and the presence of material residues that may enter the airways and be aspirated and/or swallowed. Therefore, restorative procedures must be performed in individuals with cleft lip and palate similarly to individuals who do not have cleft, however, care such as absolute isolation must be taken, and prevention is a fundamental factor in these individuals.   Keywords: Cleft Lip.
