Abstract Introduction: Although cleft lip and palate (CLP) is one of the most common congenital malformations, occurring in 1 in 700 live births, there is still no generally accepted treatment protocol. Numerous surgical techniques have been described for cleft palate repair; these techniques can be divided into one-stage (one operation) cleft palate repair and two-stage cleft palate closure. The aim of this study is to present our cleft palate team experience in using the two-stage cleft palate closure and the clinical outcomes in terms of oronasal fistula rate. Material and methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on medical records of 80 patients who underwent palate repair over a five-year period, from 2008 to 2012. All cleft palate patients were incorporated. Information on patient’s gender, cleft type, age at repair, one- or two-stage cleft palate repair were collected and analyzed. Results: Fifty-three (66%) and twenty-seven (34%) patients underwent two-stage and one-stage repair, respectively. According to Veau classification, more than 60% of them were Veau III and IV, associating cleft lip to cleft palate. Fistula occurred in 34% of the two-stage repairs versus 7% of one-stage repairs, with an overall incidence of 24%. Conclusions: Our study has shown that a two-stage cleft palate closure has a higher rate of fistula formation when compared with the one-stage repair. Two-stage repair is the protocol of choice in wide complete cleft lip and palate cases, while one-stage procedure is a good option for cleft palate alone, or some specific cleft lip and palate cases (narrow cleft palate, older age at surgery)

Objective Evaluate impact of single-stage versus staged palate repair on the risk of developing malocclusion among patients with cleft palate (CP). Design Retrospective cohort study 2000–2016 Setting Academic, tertiary children’s hospital. Patients Patients undergoing CP repair between 1999–2015. Interventions CP repair, categorized as either single-stage or staged. Main Outcome Measure Time to development of Class III malocclusion. Results 967 patients were included; 60.1% had a two-stage CP repair, and 39.9% had single-stage. Malocclusion was diagnosed in 28.2% of patients. In the model examining all patients at ≤5 years ( n = 659), patients who were not white had a higher risk of malocclusion (HR 2.46, p = 0.004) and staged repair was not protective against malocclusion (HR 0.98, p = 0.91). In all patients >5 years ( n = 411), higher Veau classification and more recent year of birth were significantly associated with higher hazard rates ( p < 0.05). Two-staged repair was not protective against developing malocclusion (HR 0.86, p = 0.60). In the model examining patients with staged repair ≤5 years old ( n = 414), higher age at hard palate closure was associated with reduced malocclusion risk (HR 0.67, p < 0.001) and patients who were not white had increased risk (HR 2.56, p = 0.01). In patients with staged repair >5 years old, more recent birth year may be associated with a higher risk of malocclusion (HR 1.06, p = 0.06) while syndrome may be associated with lower risk of malocclusion diagnosis (HR 0.46, p = 0.07). Conclusion Our data suggests that staged CP repair is not protective against developing Class III malocclusion.

Palate Repair

Background: Cleft palate repair may be compromised by a number of complications, most commonly the development of a fistula. Fistulas are related to an increased rate of hypernasal speech, articulation problems, and food or liquid regurgitation from the nose. Fistulas also tend to recur after a secondary repair to address the fistulas. This study reviews the rate of fistula in our craniofacial center after a onestage cleft palate repair; and to determine whether, cleft type, age at repair, type of cleft repair, hemoglobin level presurgery, and patients nutritional state influence the risk of fistula occurence. Patient and Method: A retrospective analysis was performed on medical records of 93 patients who underwent palate repair between January 2012 to October 2013. All consecutive cleft (lip and) palate patients are included. Bivariate analysis was performed to identify the predictors of fistula formation. Result: Ninety-three patients (50 male and 43 female) underwent one-stage palatoplasty. Cleft palate fistulas occured in 19 of 93 patients (20,4%). The age of the patients at the time of repair ranged from 9 to 144 months (mode 18 months). All palate repairs were done in one stage, using either the two flap (N=66), Wardill-Kilner (N=24), Furlow (N=2), and Langenback (N=1) techniques. No significant influence was found related between age at the time of repair (p 0.789), body weight (p 0.725), Hemoglobin value (p 0.295), and type of cleft (p 0.249) to the rate of fistula occurrence. Summary: This study found no association between , body weight, preoperative hemoglobin value, and the type of cleft to the rate of fistula following cleft palate surgery.
