Objective To develop a new method for correction of the deformity of the complete bilateral cleft lip with short pre-lip. Methods Two specimens with the complete bilateral cleft lip was chosen to investigate the arterial supply to the pre-lip. The arteries were observed by radiography when the specimen was infused with lead oxide. 16 patients with the complete bilateral cleft lip and shortage in the length of pre-lip were enrolled in this study. Taking advantage of the unique character of arterial supply of complete bilateral cleft lip, those with short pre-lip were corrected. Photos of them were taken when preand post-operation for further measurement. And more than 1 year following-up was conducted to judge if the results were good enough or not. 30 babies were chosen as a control group to confirm the results of surgury objectively. Results Post nasal septal arteries were found to supply the pre-lip of the bilateral complete cleft lip. Appearance of 16 patients was good after surgery or 1 years later. There was no statistical significant difference between the patients and control group in the measurement data but nasal-lip angle. Conclusion It is an effective way to correct deformity of the bilateral cleft lip with short pre-lip by taking advantage of post nasal septal arterie's flap.
