Prenatal diagnosis of craniomaxillofacial malformations like cleft lip and palate (CLP) enables timely surgical intervention for optimal outcomes. Early detection aids informed parental decisions and surgical planning.

Area of Science:

  • Medical imaging
  • Embryology
  • Pediatric surgery

Background:

  • Advances in embryology enhance diagnosis and classification of craniomaxillofacial anomalies.
  • Prenatal diagnosis allows for timely surgical planning, aiming for improved aesthetic and functional results.

Observation:

  • Ultrasonography diagnosed cleft lip and palate (CLP), isolated or with other anomalies, in nine pregnancies.
  • One case involved a fetus with CLP and micrognathia, successfully operated on within 6 months.

Findings:

  • Early prenatal diagnosis of CLP facilitated informed parental choices regarding pregnancy continuation.
  • Successful surgical correction was achieved for an infant diagnosed prenatally with CLP.

Implications:
