March 12, 2024 updated by: Benito Benitez, University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland

Collaborative, Comparative Study on Three-dimensional Cleft Lip and Palate Morphology Prior to One-stage Cleft Repair (Warsaw/Basel)

This is a prospective observational cohort study of consecutive patients with cleft lip and palate deformity undergoing cleft repair at the Institute of Mother and Child in Warsaw. Cleft morphology will be captured with photo and intraoral camera before routine surgery at around 8 months. Furthermore, wound healing at 3 months postoperative will be assessed.
