congenital double lip anomaly is an infrequent developmental abnormality affecting the lips, more commonly the upper lip. 5 cases of double lip are being reported for the first time from iran and all confined to the upper lip. a new surgical excision is being introduced which is called transverse cupid bow-like elliptical incision. the previous traditional method was a simple elliptical excisio...

OBJECTIVE To define the intrinsic (hypoplasia) and extrinsic (deformational) contributions to congenital nasal deformities and the potential of a carrier state for orofacial clefting. METHODS Retrospective case series. RESULTS The factors affecting 4 congenital nasal deformities are postulated after contrasting the patient's characteristics. CONCLUSIONS The spectrum of congenital nasal de...

lip pits are among the rarest congenital deformities recorded. initially reported in 1845, it’s familial occurrence has been reported just once. these developmental anomalies occur either as an isolated defect or in association with other developmental deformities including cleft lip, cleft palate or both. it may be located at the commisures of the lips or in the midline of the lower lip. it is...

Cleft involving the lip and palate are most commonly seen congenital deformities that occurs at time of birth. They not life threatening unless associated with some syndromes having systemic complications. Alveolar bone grafting is a common modalities treatment for improving patients CLCP multidisciplinary approach. This article discusses secondary alveolar graft in detail future prospects.

Background: Cleft deformities (lip and palate) have been reported to be the most common congenital craniofacial anomaly in several settings. In Uganda, though two previous studies were conducted to determine the incidence of cleft lip and palate, the estimates obtained from those studies may not be precise given the study settings. This study was undertaken to establish the incidence of cleft d...

Clefts of lip and palate are the most common congenital deformities involving the orofacial region. One of the immediate problems to be addressed in newborn is difficulty in feeding. Here, we present a case of 4month old infant with unilateral cleft lip and palate for whom feeding appliance was made.

Background: Occurrence of congenital anomalies are less common in small ruminants, especially goats compared to sheep. Most cause for the deformities new born ruminants is due ingestion toxic plants during gestation. Congenital meningoencephalocoele with associated craniofacial a rare occurrence goats. Materials: A day old crossbred kid was presented cranial defects and protrusion brain through...

The aim of this prospective study is to determine the incidences of cleft lip and palate in Karnataka & Kerala population. It also highlights a part of embryological aspect and theories that help to correlate and understand the incidence of the congenital anomaly. This prospective study were conducted in 1000 patients having cleft lip and palate deformities and classified, incidences and types ...

Ankyloblepharon-ectodermal defects-cleft lip/palate (AEC) syndrome (or Hay-Wells syndrome) is a rare congenital malformation. Our first cases were a pair of female monozygotic twins with AEC syndrome at Srinagarind Hospital. In this study, we describe monozygotic female twins concordant for ankyloblephaon, ectodermal dysplasia and helical rim deformities, but discordant for cleft, syndactyly of...

Median cleft of lower lip and mandible is a rare congenital anomaly described as cleft number 30 of Tessier's classification. In minor forms only lower lip cleft is seen. We report the case of a patient with median cleft of lower lip, severe ankyloglossia, cleft of mandibular symphysis, and residual cleft involving on right soft palate and associated with other facial clefts. These deformities ...
