  • Title: Secondary correction of bilateral cleft lip nose deformity.
    Author: Nakajima T, Yoshimura Y.
    Journal: J Craniomaxillofac Surg; 1990 Feb; 18(2):63-7. PubMed ID: 2312740.
    Abstract:
    For correction of the bilateral cleft lip nasal deformity, a modified bilateral reverse U incision is used in combination with a short, forked flap; by using this combination, satisfactory lengthening of the columella, preserving the natural pout of the lip, can be obtained. We have applied this method to 12 cases undergoing secondary repair of bilateral cleft lip in the past 3 years, and the results of this treatment, along with representative photographs of some of our patients, are presented herein.
