ABSTRACTAim: The purpose of this article is to review modification and outcome of secondary rhinoplasty along with Abbι flap for correction of secondary bilateral cleft lip deformity. Materials and Methods: A total of thirteen patients of secondary bilateral cleft lip-nose deformity having tight upper lip, lack of acceptable philtral column, Cupid′s bow definition, irregular lip scars, and associated nasal deformity were selected. All the patients received Abbι flap and simultaneous nasal correction. All cases were treated during a period of three years. Mean patient age at the time of the operation was 21 years, and ranged from 16 to 27 years. The average follow-up period was three years. Results: Assessment of results was based on comparing preoperative and postoperative clinical photographs done by surgeon and patient relatives and patient satisfaction questionnaires. The columellar lengthening and upper lip vermillion correction achieved was satisfactory. There were no perioperative complications such as airway obstruction, bleeding, infection, wound disruption, or flap necrosis.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine possible associations between severity of clefting in infants and maxillary growth in children with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate. Design: This was a retrospective study of measurements made on infant maxillary study casts and maxillary cephalometric variables obtained at 5 to 6 years of follow-up. Setting: The study was performed at the Institute of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery of New York University Medical Center, New York, New York. Patients: Twenty-four consecutive nonsyndromic unilateral complete cleft lip and palate patients treated during the years 1987 to 1994. Interventions: All the patients received uniform treatment (i.e., presurgical orthopedics followed by gingivoperiosteoplasty to close the alveolar cleft combined with repair of the lip and nose in a single stage at the age of 3 to 4 months). Closure of the palate was performed at the age of 12 to 14 months. Results: Infant maxillary study cast measurements correlated in a statistically significant manner with maxillary cephalometric measurements at age 5 to 6 years. Conclusions: The results demonstrate the large variation in the severity of unilateral cleft lip and palate deformity at birth. Patients with large clefts and small arch circumference, arch length, or both demonstrated less favorable maxillary growth than those with small clefts and large arch circumference or arch length at birth.

Objective To validate a method of primary anatomic alar repositioning using a “limited open rhinoplasty” approach, along with cleft lip repair, without presurgical orthopedics. Methods The cleft lip deformities were repaired using a modified Tennison technique, and primary muscle union and gingivoperiosteoplasty were achieved in all cases. The alar cartilages were visualized using an inverted “U” incision on the cleft side and a rim incision on the noncleft side, without joining the two with a transcolumellar incision. The domes of the cartilages were approximated by a single horizontal mattress suture. Patients Thirty-five patients were operated on by this technique between March 1999 and February 2004. The patients ranged in age from 4 to 36 months (mean, 6 months). The follow-up ranged from 4 months to 4.5 years (mean, 18 months). Results Overall, the results for nasal shape and symmetry have been extremely good. Conclusions The technique used here provides an exposure just short of an “open” rhinoplasty without scarring the columella or nasal tip. Arch alignment and a symmetric and stable bony platform are generally achieved by 2 to 3 months after the surgery. In severe cases of complete clefts, we have observed an absolute increase in alar arch length as a result of tissue stretch.

Objective Three-dimensional assessment of nasal morphology in patients with unilateral cleft lip nose treated by cartilage graft augmentation. Design Retrospective study. Patients and Intervention Thirteen patients with unilateral cleft lip nose underwent definitive secondary rhinoplasty and postsurgical changes were examined using a three-dimensional (3D) laser scan. Main Outcome Measure Nasal dorsum length, nasal tip, alar width, and alar base width in frontal view; nasion depth, nasal tip projection, nasal dorsal angle, and nasal tip angle in lateral view; nostril width, nostril height, and nasal tip height in basal view were measured at preoperative (T1: within 6 months), short follow-up (T2: 2-10 weeks), and long follow-up (T3: 9-14 months). Results A significant change in alar width, alar base width, nostril width, and nostril height at the cleft side, nasal dorsum length, nasion depth, nasal tip projection, and nasal tip height was observed from T1 to T3 follow-up after rhinoplasty ( P < .05), whereas the nostril height at the noncleft side was also significantly increased at T2 follow-up but the mean change in height relapsed at T3 follow-up. Alar width, alar base width, and nostril width at the noncleft side, and nasal tip angle did not change significantly after surgery at any follow-up period. Conclusions 3D imaging evaluation after secondary cleft rhinoplasty demonstrated improved functional and aesthetic outcomes using a septal or conchal graft.

To date, there have been no reports of patients showing a Tessier number 7 cleft with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate. Furthermore, no studies have established the sequence, plan, or timing of surgical methods for treating patients presenting the above anomalies simultaneously. We report a case of a Tessier number 7 cleft with unilateral complete cleft lip and palate. Two months after birth, lip adhesion was performed on the unilateral complete cleft lip and total excision was performed on the skin tag. At 4 months of age, Tessier number 7 cleft was corrected. At 6 months of age, surgery involving two small triangular flaps was performed on the unilateral incomplete cleft lip after performing lip adhesion. At 13 months of age, two-flap palatoplasty with a vomer flap was performed on the complete cleft palate. At 6 years of age, open rhinoplasty was performed on the unilateral cleft lip nose deformity. At 9 years of age, bone grafting was performed for the alveolar cleft. At follow-up appointments up to 13 years of age, there were no major complications. Here, we present this patient, surgical procedures and timelines, and show our results demonstrating good postoperative outcomes.
