본 교실에서 최근 4년 동안 행해진 수술의 경향을 분석한 결과를 정리해 보면 이차 비기형의 교정은 양측성의 경우 비교적 이른 시기인 4-5세에 시행되었고 편측성의 경우에는 치조성형술(alveoloplasty)의 시행을 먼저 고려한 후 10세에서 13세 경에 시행된 것을 알 수 있었다. 교정부위는 편측성의 경우 비대칭을 교정하는 수술이 중점적으로, 양측성의 경우 비주 연장술이 중점적으로 행해졌는데 아동과 성인에서 모두 비주와 비첨 수술이 거의 90%정도를 차지하였다. 그 외에 비중격 성형술, 비공 성형술 등이 10% 내외로 시행되었다. 비첨 성형술은 양측성 구순열의 경우 모두Millard's forked flap으로 시행되었고 편측성의 경우 간단하게 연골을 박리하고 Tajima suture를 시행한 경우가 아동에서 77%, 성인에서 30% 였다. 개방형 비성형술을 시행한 경우는 아동에서 40%, 성인에서 71%를 보였다. 자가 연골이식을 시행한 경우는 아동에서 23%, 성인에서 70%를 보였다. 비중격의 편향을 보이는 편측성 구순열 환자 모두에서 비중격 수술이 시행된 것은 아니었는데, 비익의 비대칭에는 적극적인 치료가 이루어진 반면 비중격의 비대칭에는 그렇지 못한 것을 알 수 있었다. 대부분의 수술이 심미적인 부분에 초점을 맞추고 있었으며 비중격 성형술의 시행에 있어 비강폐쇄의 객관적 평가가 이루어지지 않은 것이 개선해야 할 부분으로 사료되었다.

The simultaneous surgical correction of bilateral cleft lip and nasal deformity has become a more common surgical technique that has greatly changed conventional strategies for secondary nasal correction. Mulliken has been known as one of the earliest proponents for the synchronous repair of bilateral cleft lip and nasal deformity, and he emphasized the responsibility of the treating surgeon to evaluate nasolabial growth by comparing anthropometric measurements with age-matched normal patients. Good outcomes from this surgical method have been reported in clinical cases worldwide. Herein, we describe the management of two cases of bilateral cleft repair, following the principles and methods established by Mulliken. We also provide a relevant review of the literature.

구순열의 일차 수술 또는 이차 수술 후에 발생하는 상순의 지나친 긴장은 상하순 간의 부조화, 상악열성장, 골격성 III급 부정교합 등 안모추형을 초래한다. 상순의 긴장이 매우 심한 경우에는 하순의 여유 있는 조직을 이용하여 상순을 수정하는 Abbe 피판을 고려할 수 있다. 상순의 긴장이 큐피드궁의 2/3 이상의 조직 손실을 동반할 경우 Abbe 피판의 적응증이 된다. Abbe 피판은 상순과 하순의 반흔, 색상의 부조화, 그리고 상순의 불완전한 운동을 초래하는 단점을 가진다. 그러므로 Abbe 피판은 신중하게 사용되어야 한다. 우리는 편측성 구순열 1예와 양측성 구순열 3예에서 상순의 과도한 긴장과 큐피드궁의 조직 결핍 그리고 비변형이 심한 이차성 구순열비변형을 교정하기 위해 세 가지 형태의 Abbe 피판을 이용한 이차 교정술을 경험하였다. Abbe 피판수술을 시행한 결과 상순의 반흔과 긴장이 해소되고 큐피드궁이 재건되고 비주의 길이가 증가되어 이차 구순열비변형을 교정할 수 있었다. Abbe 피판은 신중을 기해 적용한다면 구순열 수술 후에 발생되는 상순의 수평적 긴장감이나 편평함을 해결하는 데 유용한 술식임을 알 수 있었다.

Background: Correction of secondary cleft nose deformity is one of the most important portions in the management of cleft lip patients. Various techniques have been introduced to achieve adequate shape, balance, and symmetry of anatomical landmarks. None of these methods can claim to universally solve all aspects of the problems encountered in secondary cleft deformity surgery. Some authors overlook the aspect of functional rehabilitation with regard to nasal respiratory pathway problems, which is present in over 90% of the patients. This study aimed to evaluate the aesthetic and functional improvements of the authors' non-destructive technique. Methods: With over 15 years of experience, open rhinoplasty was performed, which included total remodeling of the deformed lower lateral cartilage using several suture fixation techniques without any graft or implantation with septo-turbinoplasty. A total of 150 questionnaires were sent by e-mail, but 55 completed questionnaires were returned. Surgical outcomes were evaluated using questionnaire responses, and outcomes were divided into five categories each for esthetic and functional analyses. Results: The satisfaction rate ranged from 75 % to 98%, which means "more or less," "very much," and "absolutely yes" in the esthetic and functional viewpoints. Conclusion: The results of this study strongly recommend performing the suture fixation technique and functional rehabilitation simultaneously for cleft lip/nose correction.

Background : This article presents long-term outcomes after correcting secondary bilateral cleft lip nasal deformities using a refined reverse-U incision and V-Y plasty or in combination with a composite graft in order to elongate the short columella. Methods : A total of forty-six patients underwent surgery between September 1996 and December 2008. The age of the patients ranged from 3 to 19 years of age. A bilateral reverse-U incision and V-Y plasty were used in 24 patients. A composite graft from the helical root was combined with a bilateral reverse-U incision in the 22 patients who possessed a severely shortened columella. The follow-up period ranged between 2 and 10 years. Results : A total of 32 patients out of 46 were evaluated postoperatively. The average columella length was significantly improved from an average of 3.7 mm preoperatively to 8.5 mm postoperatively. The average ratio of the columella height to the alar base width was 0.18 preoperatively and 0.29 postoperatively. The postoperative basal and lateral views revealed a better shape of the nostrils and columella. The elongated columella, combined with a composite graft, presented good maintenance of the corrected position with no growth disturbance. A composite graft showed color mismatching in several patients. Twenty-six patients demonstrated no alar-columella web deformity and satisfactory symmetry of the nostrils. Four patients experienced a drooping and overhanging of the corrected alar-columella web. Conclusions : A bilateral reverse-U incision with V-Y plasty or in combination with a composite graft was effective in correcting secondary bilateral cleft lip nasal deformity.

Despite the current accomplishments with the repair of cleft lips, the surgical management of the nasal deformity remains a functional and aesthetic dilemma for patients, their families, and reconstructive surgeons. Recent improvements in the understanding and technical execution of te primary cleft lip repair have significantly reduced secondary sequelae and the consequent need for secondary surgical correction. But, secondary surgical corrections are necessary according to numerous factors. Such factors include the secondary surgical corrections are necessary according to numerous factors. Such factors include the severity of the initial deformity, the surgical plan, precision of execution of the primary repair, and success of the postoperative management. We preformed the secondary correction of cleft lip and palate in 11 patients via various methods. In conclusion, primary repair of cleft lip and palate patients is the most important to prevent the secondary deformities, and most of cleft lip and palate with secondary deformities must be treated with combined cheiloplasty and rhinoplasty.

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.

The secondary correction of cleft lip nasal deformity (CLND) presents difficult surgical problems. Characteristically, nostrils are asymmetric. The present study was aimed to examine and compare the effect of Straith's alar web Z-plasty, Millard's alar web Z-plasty, alar web excision, and lateral V-Y advancement of the alar base for augmentation of the nostril with or without lengthening the columella in CLND. The subjects were 28 patients with unilateral cleft lip, who had secondary nostril correction. The nostril correction methods were Straith's alar web Z-plasty, Millard's alar web Z-plasty, alar web excision, and lateral V-Y advancement of the alar base. Facial photographs were taken before and 20 days after the operation. By using Adobe photoshop, the columella length and the nostril width were measured from the facial frontal photograph and Worm's eye view. The degree of improvement was calculated and statistically analyzed. The degree of improvement of the columella length using Straith's alar web Z-plasty was 70.20%. And then Millard's alar web Z-plasty was 55.01%, alar web excision was 39.93%, and lateral V-Y advancement of the alar base was 16.38% in order. The degree of improvement of the nostril size using lateral V-Y advancement of the alar base was 55.26%. And then alar web excision was 52.72%, Millard's alar web Z-plasty was 34.86%, and Straith's alar web Z-plasty was 16.06% in order. Straith's alar web Z-plasty and Millard's alar web Z-plasty resulted in elongation of the columella, equalization of asymmetrical nostril, and enlargement of small nostrils. Alar web excision enlarged nostrils and restored symmetry. Lateral VY advancement of the alar base increased nostril width and enlarged nostrils. These results indicate that the correction of nostrils improve the shape and the symmetry of the nostrils in CLND.

The treatment of cleft lip and palate must be based on a complete knowledge of the anatomy, physiology and growth of the involved deformity, because of not only the appearance but also impaired functions such as phonation, mastication, respiration and lingual posture of the maxillomandibular complex. Delaire has long studied all these aspects, and has published many numbers of articles and constructed a philosophy concerning the significance and interrelationship of the various structures. The results obtained from its application seem to be particularly valid from a clinical point of view, although it has not all been scientifically supported by experimental data. For these reasons, Delaire's primary unilateral and bilateral cheilorhinoplasty procedures are particulary good, as is his secondary gingivoalveoloplsty procedure during the course of the surgical repair of the hard palate. In order to understand Delaire's philosophy, it is necessary to consider the normal and pathologic anatomy of the structures involved in the deformity, the role of some structures, such as nasal septum, musculature, and tongue, and some functions, such as dental occlusion or nasal respiration, which play important roles in maxillary and particularly premaxillary growth. Despite of important concept and meanings, Delaire's philosophy has not been introduced widely to our Korean cleft surgeons yet. So authors will summarize the basic concepts of Delaire's philosophy according to already published literatures and lectures based on our previous treatment outcomes.
