Abstract:
Objective:To explore the application of septoplasty and cheiloplasty in complete unilateral cleft lip repairment, and evaluate the effect on nasal shape correction.
Methods:Twenty-four infants with complete unilateral cleft lip were divided into two groups: the correction group and the control group. Both groups underwent cheiloplasty by Mohler′s technique, septoplasty was performed in the correction group during the primary cheiloplasty. Six-month follow-up was taken to evaluate the nasal shape with the three dimensional images. Independent-samples t Test was performed using SPSS 21.0, to compare the nasal morphology between two groups.
Results:All patients healed in the first stage, and were followed for 6 months after operations. There were no complication, including nasal septum perforation, occurred in either group.There were statistically significant differences in nasal parameters between the correction group and controls (P<0.05). The columellar width, nostril width on the affected side, and columella deviation of the correction group were smaller, than those of controls. The nose tip height, columellar height and nostril height on the affected side of the correction group were greater than those of the control group.
Conclusions:Septoplasty associated with the primary cheiloplasty in complete unilateral cleft lip repairment, shows better results in the elongation of the nasal columella, and the correction of septum deviation, and provides a stable nasal structure.
