[Comparative study on the maxillary symmetry in preoperatively treated children with cleft lip and cleft palate].
Comparative studies on the palatal symmetry in healthy new-born babies and in new-born babies with cheilognathopalatoschisis revealed cleft palates with a high degree of asymmetry. Therefore, it is reasonable to measure the treatment results achieved in cleft patients against the degree of palatal symmetry attained. This evaluation was performed in 30 subjects with unilateral complete cleft and in 20 individuals with bilateral complete cleft.
