Heterotopic neuroglial tissue represents normal glial tissue in an abnormal location distant from the central nervous system. It is a rare congenital condition and the majority of these lesions are diagnosed at birth or early childhood. We report a rare case scenario of a growth arising from the vomer associated with cleft palate. The origin of a glial choristoma from the midline of the nasal cavity in association with a cleft palate has not been reported in the literature. Complete surgical excision was performed prior to palatoplasty with no postoperative complications or evidence of recurrence.

Normative Palatal Measurements in Infants: Implications for Nasoalveolar Molding in Cleft Lip and Palate Patients.
J Craniofac Surg
January 2025
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Medical University of South Carolina.
Background: Children with cleft lip ± palate (CL/P) may undergo nasoalveolar molding (NAM) before surgery to achieve arch alignment and tension-free closure, yet the endpoint of arch dimensions has not been defined.
Objective: To characterize the size and shape of infant palates using anatomic landmarks on magnetic resonance imaging in infants without CL/P.
Methods: Magnetic resonance imaging of infants without cleft palate younger than 3 months were reviewed and 13 measurements were taken to define palatal shape: distance between incisive foramen (IF) and incisors (IN), IF and middle of canines (MOC), between MOCs, between first molars (FM), 2 depth and 4 angle measurements.

Objective: To evaluate the frequency of tooth anomalies (TA) in the deciduous and permanent dentition of patients with nonsyndromic orofacial clefts (NSOC), both inside and outside the cleft area.
Methods: The following databases were searched for the relevant literature: Cochrane, OVID, SciELO, Embase, Livivo, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. The risk of bias was analyzed using the Joanna Briggs Institute.

There are many factors to consider regarding the orthodontic treatment of an individual with cleft lip and palate in relation to the alveolar bone graft procedure. Some of these are: the sequence and timing of treatment, indications for pre-graft orthodontics, the appropriate appliances that should be used, and considerations in post-graft orthodontics. A review of some of the current concepts, management, and protocols are described.

Objective: This study explored parents' experiences of the transition of responsibility to their child for healthcare decisions relating to their cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P).
Methods: Online semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 participants (six females and five males, aged 41 to 60 years). They were parents of young people who had decided whether to undergo orthognathic surgery.
