Journal Title: European Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 6

Abstract

Clefts of the upper lip and palate are the most common major congenital craniofacial malformation. Clefting of the facial structure (complex facial cleft) other than the typical nasolabial region is rare. The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of complex facial cleft(rare facial cleft). Paul Tessier described a numbering system for facial clefting phenomena to make description and surgical planning more easily explained. This a prospective study is include 200 cases of orofacial cleft from 2013 to 2016 attended to the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery. From 200 cases with orofacial clefts only 4 cases(2%) had complex facial clefts, 3 female and 1male ,female to male(3-1). large gap with hard and soft tissue deficiency appear clear in such patients, and several breakdown were occurred postoperatively ,therefore team approach with experience surgeons need to overcome this problem.
