Primary Cleft Lip Repair

Understanding Primary Cleft Lip Repair

What is a Cleft Lip? A cleft lip is a congenital deformity characterized by a gap or split in the upper lip. This condition occurs when the facial structures of a developing baby don't close completely.

Causes and Risk Factors Cleft lip can be caused by genetic factors, environmental influences, or a combination of both. Some risk factors include family history, maternal smoking, and certain medications during pregnancy.

Importance of Early Intervention Early intervention is crucial for effective treatment. Repairing the cleft lip as soon as possible ensures better functional and aesthetic outcomes, promoting normal development and minimizing future complications.

Surgical Repair of Cleft Lip

Preoperative Preparation

Before the surgical procedure, thorough evaluations are conducted to assess the extent and severity of the cleft lip. This involves physical examinations, imaging studies, and consultations with a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals.

Postoperative Care

After surgery, meticulous postoperative care is essential to monitor healing and prevent complications. The child may need to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation and management of pain. Specialized feeding techniques and oral hygiene practices are also advised to support recovery and minimize the risk of infection.

Surgical Technique

Primary cleft lip repair is performed under general anesthesia to ensure the comfort and safety of the child. The surgical procedure involves carefully repositioning and suturing the tissues of the upper lip to close the gap. The goal is to achieve a symmetrical and natural-looking lip contour while preserving or restoring normal function.
