Abstract

In the recent time, early correction of the congenital anomalies has become the focus of contemporary cleft lip care, The reason of that is mostly psychologic factor of children are respected, Although the propound object of lip adhesion is not esthetic improvement, that able to satisfy sufficiently parents of cleft children, In the unilateral or bilateral clefts, a preliminary lip adhesion has been advocated as a mean of narrowing the cleft at an early phase, of improving the nasal contour, of molding the alveolar arch, and of easing and improving the result of a definitive lip repair. The present study was earned out to investigate the effect of lip adhesion. We performed the Millard's high-half underminded adhesion and Seibert's lip adhesion followed by modified Millard's cheiloplasty for five infants had unilateral complete cleft lip. The lip adhesion reduced the actual deformity by molding the maxillary alveolar segments into better relationship and allows a easy cheiloplasty so that led to more perfect final lip result, Both Millard's high-half underminded adhesion and Seibert's lip adhesion were available methods to adhere a wide cleft lip, Especially, Seibert's lip adhesion had more advantages such as enhancement of the force of adhesion, correction of the deviated columella and acquirement of the esthetic upper lip continuity. These results suggest that the lip adhesion followed by cheiloplasty for wide unilateral complete cleft lip patients provide more favorable final result by molding the maxillary alveolar segments into better relationship.

본 연구에서는 구순접합술의 효과를 알아보기 위하여, 일측성 완전구순열을 가진 5명의 환아에서 Millard의 high haU-underminded adhesion과 Seibert 의 lip adhesion을 이용한 구순접합술후 Millard 변법을 이용한구순성형술을 시행하였다. 구순접합술은 상악치조분절 간의 관계를 개선해 주고 구순성형술을 쉽게해주며 최종적인 구순성형술 후 더욱 좋은 결과를 나타냈다. High kalf-underminded adhesion과 Seibert의 lip adhesion은 둘 다 넓은 구순열을 하는데 유용한 방법이며, 특히 Seibert의 lip ahesion은 강한 접합력을 얻을 수 있고 변위된 비중격의 개선 효과가 있으며 보다 심미적인 상순의 연속성을 얻게 해 주었다. 이상의 결과에서 넓은 완전구순열 환아에서 구순성형술에 앞서 구순접합술을 시행하면 상악치조분절 간의 관계를 개선시키고 구순성형술 후 최종적인 결과를 향상시킴을 알 수 있다.
