  • The author presents Bardach' s technique for the residual unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity, The key to a successful and stable correction of the nasal deformity is to lengthen the columella on the cleft side and to mobilize alar cartilage from its surrounding tissue, creating a symmetric shape and length, The major advantages of the technique are lengthening of the cleft columella and creation of a symmetric and well-projected nasal tip.

  • A cephalometric study was undertaken to reveal significant differences of craniofacial morphology of operated congenital cleft lip and palate subjects and control subjects. The material for this study consisted of 73 subjects with operated congenital cleft lip and palate subjects(53 males, 20 females) and 110 control subjects (7 males, 34 females) ranging from 3 to 14 years old. Each group was divided into four age groups (3-5, 6-8, 9-11, 12-14 year) and analyzed by Cohen's method and Burstone's method. The following conclusions were obtained ; 1. In Wit's appraisal, there was no difference the cleft lip and palate subjects and the control subjects. 2. In the cleft lip and palate subjects, they had smaller and more retrusive maxilla than the control subjects in both sexes. 3. In the cleft lip and palate subjects, they had more retrusive mandible than the control subjects in both sexes. 4. In the cleft lip and palate subjects, they had more concave profile than the control subjects.

  • Esthetic reconstruction of cleft lip nose deformity is a challenging task in surgical management of patients with orofacial cleft. The author reconstructed cleft lip nose deformity effectively using autogenous auricular cartilage and a relatively new graft material of porcine dermal collagen, $Permacol^{TM}$. After correction of the deformed lower third of the nose with patient's auricular cartilage, we applied $Permacol^{TM}$ to augment the entire nasal dorsum. Three patients were treated and followed for up to five years. All patients improved in nose aesthetics without any inflammatory or immunogenic reaction. The author suggests that the use of $Permacol^{TM}$ for nasal profile augmentation in the treatment of cleft lip nose deformity is an alternative surgical strategy with minimal surgical invasiveness. The author report long-term experience with combined use of auricular cartilage and $Permacol^{TM}$ in nasal reconstruction for cleft lip nose deformity.
