| Popis: |
A two-stage surgical procedure involving labioplasty and palatoplasty is a common surgical modality performed in children with cleft lip and palate. Additionally, an alveolar cleft bone graft is performed prior to the eruption of the canine teeth. These three surgeries impose the burden of general anesthesia separately for each procedure, and the formation of scar tissue from the procedure inhibits maxillary growth. We adopted a single-stage surgical procedure to overcome these drawbacks. To date, there have been no reports comparing the treatment outcomes of alveolar morphology and maxillary growth and development in children who underwent single-stage surgery with those who underwent two-stage surgery using plaster casts and cephalograms. Twenty children aged 5–7 years were equally divided into two groups based on whether they had undergone a two- or single-stage procedure. Cephalometric analysis and analysis of dentition models were conducted. The results showed that the single-stage surgery exhibited significant differences in the sella-nasion angle, point A to McNamara line, maxillary length, mandibular body length, and posterior arch width and length compared with the two-stage surgery. Therefore, it was suggested that the single-stage surgery had a favorable effect on maxillary growth compared with the two-stage surgery. |
