Abstract:
We describe the particularities of cleft lip and palate treatment in the department of plastic surgery managed by Pr Hosaka at the Showa University in Tokyo. Their surgical technic inherited from Pr Onizuka, their multidisciplinary approach, and their experience with over 300 cases a year were not reported in a non-Japanese journal. Therefore, we found interesting to describe their whole management.
