A total of 551 children with cleft lips and 136 children with secondary deformations of the upper lip and nose were followed up after cheiloplasty. Electrostimulation of the upper lip, total UV exposure, humisol and pelloidine electrophoresis, and total massage before cheiloplasty decreased the incidence of general and local postoperative complications. Reconstructive cheiloplasty was preceded by lidase or iodine ultraphonophoresis or electrostimulation of the perioral muscles. After surgery a course of magnetic and laser exposure or heparin ultraphonophoresis and local troxevasin were prescribed. This improved both the cosmetic and functional result of the operation.

Pre- and postoperative photos to assess results are widely used in plastic and reconstructive surgery, for instance, in patients with cleft lip and palate (CL/P). Evaluations are often performed by assessment panels by viewing the photos. However, these are prone to be subjective.

Aims And Background: The study of the morphology of soft tissues as well as hard tissues of the orofacial region holds prime importance. A very less information is known about the lips (soft tissues) and maxillo-mandibular arches (hard tissue structures) in primary dentition. Henceforth, there is a need to classify, find the prevalence and correlation of various lip shapes, and arch forms in primary dentition.

Aim: To compare three-dimensional (3D) facial morphology of various unilateral cleft subphenotypes at 9-years of age to normative data using a general face template and automatic landmarking. The secondary objective is to compare facial morphology of 9-year-old children with unilateral fusion to differentiation defects.
Methods: 3D facial stereophotogrammetric images of 9-year-old unilateral cleft patients were imported into 3DMedX® for processing.

Cleft lip and palate (CLP) are a usually inherited anomaly described as a gap in the oral cavity's upper lip and/or roof. The etiology of CLP involves both genetic and environmental factors. The current study aimed to examine the genetic basis of nonsyndromic (NS) CLP (NSCL/P) and its association with specific genetic polymorphisms.

Cutaneous arteriovenous haemangioma (AVH) is a rare benign vascular lesion, which typically occurs on the head and neck. Its aetiology is unclear but thrombosis, trauma, infection or endocrine triggers have been proposed. We report the case of a 64-year-old female presenting with acquired AVH of the upper lip following oral herpes simplex virus infection.
