Abstract

Orofacial clefts, both cleft lip with or without palate and isolated cleft palate, are considered one of the most common congenital malformations. The overall prevalence of orofacial clefts is about 1 in 700 live births. Cleft centres worldwide have their own treatment protocols and timing for primary surgeries. In the Cleft Center of the University Hospital Brno (UHB) in the Czech Republic, about 80 newborns with orofacial cleft are taken into care per year. Cleft lip surgery is performed from the second day of life, and cleft palate surgery is recommended from the seventh month of life.
