Summary

Cleft lip and cleft palate are the most common birth defects of craniofacial development. The surgical repair of this deformity requires comprehensive management plans and well cooperating interdisciplinary cleft teams. Secondary cleft rhinoplasty remains one of the most challenging procedures and aims for restoring nostril symmetry, enhancing nasal function, and improvement of aesthetic outcomes.

Conditions

  • Cleft Lip, Unilateral

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Unilateral cleft lip rhinoplasty

* Perform marking with methylene blue tattoo marks * Inject Local anesthetic solution with epinephrine * Harvest auricular cartilage * Make the incisions parallel the lip scar, extende into the marginal incision and encompass any alar webbing. The incisions outline the entirety of the lower lateral cartilage and create sliding chondrocutaneous flap. This flap combines with reverse U incision. * Harvest septal bony cartilaginous unit for grafting the caudal septum and suspend the medial crural cartilages * Create dome symmetry at the cartilage level and reconstruct nasal tip with other grafts (shield-type tip graft, cap graft, alar batten graft) * Dorsal augmentation * Lip reconstruction and alar base repositioning. * Closure and repair vestibular deficiency with the reverse-U component of the chondrocutaneous flap at the alar rim.
