Abstract

Objective To introduce a method of functional reparation for cleft lip with mini-approach.Methods Design triangle flap in junctional zone between skin and mucosa,combine with intraoral incision approach,by means of repairing the orbicularis oris muscle,to obtain the reconstruction of labial arch,philtrum column and nasal wing.Results All cases in this study obtained perfect healing,with good augmentation at floor of the nose.Majoritily with good looking of philtrum and improvement in the shape of nostril.Conclusion In use of the method of functional reparation for cleft lip with mini-approach can decrease scar on skin,hence decrease the contraction deform,as well as nice reconstruction of labial arch,philtrum column and nasal wing.
