Cleft Lip and Palate Correction: The Utah Protocol.
Background: Cleft repair remains a contentious issue in craniofacial surgery, especially regarding the optimal timing and techniques. This study aims to present our institutions' current protocol for cleft lip and palate repair, including alveolar bone grafting (ABG).
Methods: A total of 17 patients (20 clefts) treated with the latest protocol from 2016 to 2023 were evaluated. Demographic and clinical data were obtained from electronic charts. The protocol includes lip repair at 3 months, soft palate repair at 1 year, and hard palate closure with concurrent ABG at 2 years.
Results: Mean graft height and thickness scores were 2.3 and 2.2, respectively. Three clefts showed scores marginally below the threshold for thickness, potentially requiring regrafting. Malocclusion was minimal with no significant crossbites or velopharyngeal insufficiency.
Conclusions: Our modified protocol, emphasizing early hard palate closure with ABG, yields satisfactory outcomes in terms of graft height and thickness. Although long-term follow-up is warranted, our approach seems safe and efficient, potentially improving outcomes compared with traditional methods.
期刊介绍:
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open is an open access, peer reviewed, international journal focusing on global plastic and reconstructive surgery.Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open publishes on all areas of plastic and reconstructive surgery, including basic science/experimental studies pertinent to the field and also clinical articles on such topics as: breast reconstruction, head and neck surgery, pediatric and craniofacial surgery, hand and microsurgery, wound healing, and cosmetic and aesthetic surgery. Clinical studies, experimental articles, ideas and innovations, and techniques and case reports are all welcome article types. Manuscript submission is open to all surgeons, researchers, and other health care providers world-wide who wish to communicate their research results on topics related to plastic and reconstructive surgery. Furthermore, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open, a complimentary journal to Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, provides an open access venue for the publication of those research studies sponsored by private and public funding agencies that require open access publication of study results. Its mission is to disseminate high quality, peer reviewed research in plastic and reconstructive surgery to the widest possible global audience, through an open access platform. As an open access journal, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open offers its content for free to any viewer. Authors of articles retain their copyright to the materials published. Additionally, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery—Global Open provides rapid review and publication of accepted papers.
