Abstract
A wide variety of deformities can occur following repair of the cleft lip. Especially, cleft lip nasal deformities offer the severe psychologic, esthetic, and functional impairment. We must restore the deformities of alar cartilge, nasal tip, septum, columella, or pyriform aperture. The authors reconstructed the cleft lip nasal deformities using with the alar cartilage rearrangement, postauricular cartilage graft, and/or columellar lengthening. The 3 case reports are presented.
