1Oral Department of the First Hospital Attached to Nan Hua University, Hengyang 421001, China.
Objective:
To explore the clinical effect of the method of rotation descent step by step for unilateral complete cleft lip with.
Methods:
The method of rotation descent step by step was used to repair unilateral complete cleft lip. Point X was located on the angular bisector of 123, rotation descent step by step and orbicularis oris degloved dissection were used. Nasal deformities were corrected at the same stage.
Results:
From Oct. 2006 to Oct. 2008, 68 cases were treated with primary healing. 42 cases were followed up for less than one year. Among them, 3 cases showed asymmetric lip height, and 6 cases showed asymmetric lip width. 26 cases were followed up more than one year with only two cases of asymmetric lip width.
Conclusions:
The method of rotation descent step by step is very suitable for repairing unilateral complete cleft lip. The restoration of the malpositioned tissue is especially emphasized in this method.
