Annual case load
Cleft palate: | 10 |
Pierre Robin: | 1 - 2 |
Cleft lip & palate (CLP) Unilateral (UCLP): | 25 |
Bilateral (BCLP): | 14 |
Cleft lip (CL) Unilateral (UCL): | 5 |
Bilateral (BCL): | 1,4 |
Number of syndromic cases: | with Anophtalmos, Apert sy, with Heart Congenital Defects |
Primary surgical protocol
Timing of first repair and type of operation.
Complete UCLP: | 2 flap palatoplasty s. Bardach - at age from 6 - to l2 month |
Complete BCLP: | One Stage primary Bilateral Cleft Lip Nose repair s. Black´s technique or Salyer ´s technique at age 3 month ,two stage bilateral Cleft Lip Nose repair is rare Primary bilateral cleft nose reconstruction : Stage 2 - is performed 1 year after the first operation Two - flap palatoplasty - Bardach´s technique at age from 6 – 18 month timing is dependent on actual health conditions of child, if the premaxilla is displaced anteriorly - the anterior one third of hard palate is reconstructed later, after the premaxillary repositioning in the course of growths after 4 - 5 years |
Isolated CP: | Two flap palatoplasty s Bardach, 2 laterally placed mucoperiosteal flaps and one anterior triangular shaped flap, in cases of very wide cleft and short soft palate we use Furlow's Technique in combination with uvular pad from Salyer's modification of Two - Flap Palatoplasty |
Record collection protocol
Are records routinely collected at specific ages? | Yes |
Does this conform to WHO timing recommendations (birth, 5, 10, 15 and 20 years)? | Yes |
What record taking protocol is used: | We perform examination and follow up of patients each year, and we use Eurocleft Project 1996-2000 Eurocleft Consensus Recommendations Timing of minimum records adapted to our conditions |
State coverage of costs
Are the costs of the following treatments covered by the state (free to the patient)?
Surgery costs: | All |
Orthodontic costs: | All |
Speech and language therapy costs: | All |
Comments on the service provision: | If patients choose other orthodontist who has office more closely to the home adress, maybe they cover part of orthodontics treatment costs |
